How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.7 kernel-macros to version 6.4.0-150700.53.73.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-macros package and not the kernel-macros package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.7 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

btrfs: tracepoints: get correct superblock from dentry in event btrfs_sync_file()

If overlay is used on top of btrfs, dentry->d_sb translates to overlay's super block and fsid assignment will lead to a crash.

Use file_inode(file)->i_sb to always get btrfs_sb.
