Upgrade SLES:15.0 git-email to version 2.16.4-3.9.2 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream git-email package and not the git-email package as distributed by SLES.
See How to fix? for SLES:15.0 relevant fixed versions and status.
Git before 2.19.2 on Linux and UNIX executes commands from the current working directory (as if '.' were at the end of $PATH) in certain cases involving the run_command() API and run-command.c, because there was a dangerous change from execvp to execv during 2017.
