The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLES15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:0724-1 advisory.

  - Rat.SetString in math/big in Go before 1.16.14 and 1.17.x before 1.17.7 has an overflow that can lead to     Uncontrolled Memory Consumption. (CVE-2022-23772)

  - cmd/go in Go before 1.16.14 and 1.17.x before 1.17.7 can misinterpret branch names that falsely appear to     be version tags. This can lead to incorrect access control if an actor is supposed to be able to create     branches but not tags. (CVE-2022-23773)

  - Curve.IsOnCurve in crypto/elliptic in Go before 1.16.14 and 1.17.x before 1.17.7 can incorrectly return     true in situations with a big.Int value that is not a valid field element. (CVE-2022-23806)
