To install the package:
yum --enablerepo=virt-xen-VV-testing xen-vixen
Where VV is '44', '46', or '48', depending on which version you're using. (It's the same package for all versions.)
This will install the xen-vixen "shim" binary, as well as the pvshim-converter script.
See XSA-254 [1] for detailed information about who should use it, why, and when. Please report both successes and failures here. :-)

The package is missing two dependencies, without which the script won't run: mformat and xorriso. xorriso is only available from EPEL.
So to use the script, enable EPEL (if you haven't already):
yum install -y epel-release
Then install the two prerequisites:
yum install -y mformat xorriso
I'll add the mformat dependency, and see what I can do about xorriso.
