## Patch Instructions:

To install this SUSE update use the SUSE recommended installation methods like
YaST online_update or "zypper patch".  
Alternatively you can run the command listed for your product:

  * openSUSE Leap 15.5  
    zypper in -t patch SUSE-2024-1787=1 openSUSE-SLE-15.5-2024-1787=1

  * SUSE Linux Enterprise Micro 5.5  
    zypper in -t patch SUSE-SLE-Micro-5.5-2024-1787=1

  * Basesystem Module 15-SP5  
    zypper in -t patch SUSE-SLE-Module-Basesystem-15-SP5-2024-1787=1

  * Development Tools Module 15-SP5  
    zypper in -t patch SUSE-SLE-Module-Development-Tools-15-SP5-2024-1787=1
