How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:10 php7.3 to version 7.3.27-1~deb10u1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php7.3 package and not the php7.3 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

In PHP versions 7.3.x below 7.3.26, 7.4.x below 7.4.14 and 8.0.0, when validating URL with functions like filter_var($url, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL), PHP will accept an URL with invalid password as valid URL. This may lead to functions that rely on URL being valid to mis-parse the URL and produce wrong data as components of the URL.
