How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.2 libwavpack1 to version 5.4.0-4.9.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libwavpack1 package and not the libwavpack1 package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.2 relevant fixed versions and status.

WavPack 5.3.0 has an out-of-bounds write in WavpackPackSamples in pack_utils.c because of an integer overflow in a malloc argument. NOTE: some third-parties claim that there are later "unofficial" releases through 5.3.2, which are also affected.
