How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.5 npm20 to version 20.15.1-150500.11.12.2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream npm20 package and not the npm20 package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

The Permission Model assumes that any path starting with two backslashes \ has a four-character prefix that can be ignored, which is not always true. This subtle bug leads to vulnerable edge cases.
