How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.4 php8-xsl to version 8.0.30-150400.4.65.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php8-xsl package and not the php8-xsl package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, and 8.5.* before 8.5.6, the metaphone() function in ext/standard/metaphone.c uses a signed int variable to track the current position within the input string. If a string longer than 2,147,483,647 bytes is passed, a signed integer overflow occurs, resulting in undefined behavior. This can lead to an out-of-bounds read, causing a segmentation fault or access to unrelated memory, and may affect the availability of the PHP process.
