How to fix?

There is no fixed version for opencascade.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read in the RWStl_Reader::ReadAscii process when buffers returned by Standard_ReadLineBuffer::ReadLine are not properly length-validated before being used in strncasecmp or accessed directly. An attacker can cause denial of service or potentially disclose sensitive information by convincing a user to open a specially crafted STL file containing extremely short lines.
