How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:10 tor to version 0.2.9.11-1 or higher.

NVD Description

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

The hidden-service feature in Tor before 0.3.0.8 allows a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) in the connection_edge_process_relay_cell function via a BEGIN_DIR cell on a rendezvous circuit.
