How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:10 flac to version 1.3.0-3 or higher.

NVD Description

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

Heap-based buffer overflow in stream_decoder.c in libFLAC before 1.3.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted .flac file.
