As far as your computer has Secure Boot enabled, there is no way around -
you need to install ELRepo's SB key to use any of the ELRepo kernel module
packages.

What you should have done is to downgrade shim/mokutils as instructed in
the CentOS bug report #14050. In other words, replace the current version
with an earlier version (not "the elrepo ones"). The procedure provided by
TrevorH (comment 30502) works just fine.

What is your current status?

rpm -qa shim\* mokutil

P.S. Let's hope CentOS publishes an updated version to fix the issue.​
