CVE-2018-7685  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-347  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.0 zypper-log to version 1.14.10-3.7.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream zypper-log package and not the zypper-log 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.
