How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:16.0.0 php8-sqlite to version 8.4.21-160000.1.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php8-sqlite package and not the php8-sqlite package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

In PHP versions 8.4.* before 8.4.21 and 8.5.* before 8.5.6, when an encoding name containing an embedded NUL byte is passed to mb_convert_encoding() or related mbstring functions, the code incorrectly assumes that when strncasecmp() returns 0 it means the strings have the same length. This can lead to out-of-bounds read of global memory, potentially causing a crash or information disclosure or crash. Affected functions include mb_convert_encoding(), mb_detect_encoding(), mb_convert_variables(), and mb_detect_order(), as well as the mbstring.detect_order and mbstring.http_output INI settings.
