Synopsis

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:4031-1 advisory.

- CVE-2026-59881: excessive resource consumption due to WebSocket client accepting compressed frames without negotiated permessage-deflate (bsc#1273125).
