See How to fix? for SLES:15.2 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tun: avoid double free in tun_free_netdev
Avoid double free in tun_free_netdev() by moving the dev->tstats and tun->security allocs to a new ndo_init routine (tun_net_init()) that will be called by register_netdevice(). ndo_init is paired with the desctructor (tun_free_netdev()), so if there's an error in register_netdevice() the destructor will handle the frees.
