How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.1 libnghttp2-14-32bit to version 1.40.0-150000.3.17.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libnghttp2-14-32bit package and not the libnghttp2-14-32bit package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

The HTTP/2 protocol allows a denial of service (server resource consumption) because request cancellation can reset many streams quickly, as exploited in the wild in August through October 2023.
