How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.2 busybox-static to version 1.34.1-4.9.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream busybox-static package and not the busybox-static package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.2 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer overflow in the DHCP client (udhcpc) in BusyBox before 1.25.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed RFC1035-encoded domain name, which triggers an out-of-bounds heap write.
