How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.1 apache2-worker to version 2.4.33-3.50.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream apache2-worker package and not the apache2-worker package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Apache HTTP Server 2.4.0-2.4.39, a limited cross-site scripting issue was reported affecting the mod_proxy error page. An attacker could cause the link on the error page to be malformed and instead point to a page of their choice. This would only be exploitable where a server was set up with proxying enabled but was misconfigured in such a way that the Proxy Error page was displayed.
