How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.3 dpdk-tools to version 19.11.4-150300.11.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dpdk-tools package and not the dpdk-tools package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.3 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in dpdk. This flaw allows a malicious vhost-user master to attach an unexpected number of fds as ancillary data to VHOST_USER_GET_INFLIGHT_FD / VHOST_USER_SET_INFLIGHT_FD messages that are not closed by the vhost-user slave. By sending such messages continuously, the vhost-user master exhausts available fd in the vhost-user slave process, leading to a denial of service.
