How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.0 tomcat-el-3_0-api to version 9.0.30-3.34.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tomcat-el-3_0-api package and not the tomcat-el-3_0-api package as distributed by SLES:15.0. See How to fix? for SLES:15.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

When Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.28, 8.5.0 to 8.5.47, 7.0.0 and 7.0.97 is configured with the JMX Remote Lifecycle Listener, a local attacker without access to the Tomcat process or configuration files is able to manipulate the RMI registry to perform a man-in-the-middle attack to capture user names and passwords used to access the JMX interface. The attacker can then use these credentials to access the JMX interface and gain complete control over the Tomcat instance.
