But at this moment we cannot replace it. Why im asking this, because output on different CentOS confused me. The way to bypass the check is to edit that file and make it look like it's from a RHEL machine then the installation scripts work. It's been a long time since I needed to do that bypass but iirc it was required for some HP packages and possibly some from Oracle too - though there may be others.

The other machine hasn't had that altered but it has had its kernel updated to the latest version while leaving the centos-release package at 5. With CVE's just in the older kernel - let alone all the other packages you have installed on the system - you should at the very least update to 5. Right on the first machine Oracle db is installed that is why file has been changed to Red Hat release. On the second machine i have updated centos-release package and it shows right version of CentOS.

You need to run yum update and apply all packages to do that.
