How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.1 python-devel to version 2.7.17-7.32.1 or higher.

NVD Description

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

The CGIHandler class in Python before 2.7.12 does not protect against the HTTP_PROXY variable name clash in a CGI script, which could allow a remote attacker to redirect HTTP requests.
