How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.0 qemu-block-ssh to version 2.11.2-9.25.1 or higher.

NVD Description

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

In QEMU 3.1.0, load_device_tree in device_tree.c calls the deprecated load_image function, which has a buffer overflow risk.
