How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.1 ruby2.5-stdlib to version 2.5.5-4.3.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ruby2.5-stdlib package and not the ruby2.5-stdlib package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

An issue was discovered in RubyGems 2.6 and later through 3.0.2. The gem owner command outputs the contents of the API response directly to stdout. Therefore, if the response is crafted, escape sequence injection may occur.
