Upgrade SLES:15.0 php7-wddx to version 7.2.5-4.89.4 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php7-wddx package and not the php7-wddx package as distributed by SLES.
See How to fix? for SLES:15.0 relevant fixed versions and status.
The zend_string_extend function in Zend/zend_string.h in PHP through 7.1.5 does not prevent changes to string objects that result in a negative length, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging a script's use of .= with a long string.
