Upgrade SLES:15.2 qemu-microvm to version 4.2.1-11.34.2 or higher.

NVD Description

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

sd_wp_addr in hw/sd/sd.c in QEMU 4.2.0 uses an unvalidated address, which leads to an out-of-bounds read during sdhci_write() operations. A guest OS user can crash the QEMU process.
