See:
In other words, no: RHEL 4 and CentOS4 are not affected by this flaw.
My understanding is: RHEL is obsolete, hence it will not even be mentioned on that page, whether it is known to be affected or not.
RHEL/Centos-4 is EOL so wouldn't be updated regardless (at least under the normal EOL guidelines), but it is mentioned toward the bottom of that page under "Affected Packages State":
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 kernel Not affected
