How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:16.0.0 python313-pip to version 25.0.1-160000.5.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python313-pip package and not the python313-pip package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

pip would treat console_scripts and gui_scripts as paths instead of file names without sanitizing the resolved absolute path to the installation directory, leading to entry points being installed outside the installation directory.
