How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.0 python3-solv to version 0.6.35-3.5.2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python3-solv package and not the python3-solv package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

The decoupled download and installation steps in libzypp before 17.5.0 could lead to a corrupted RPM being left in the cache, where a later call would not display the corrupted RPM warning and allow installation, a problem caused by malicious warnings only displayed during download.
