How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:10 file to version 1:5.19-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream file package and not the file package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

The cdf_read_short_sector function in cdf.c in file before 5.19, as used in the Fileinfo component in PHP before 5.4.30 and 5.5.x before 5.5.14, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit) via a crafted CDF file.
