There is no fixed version for Debian:11 avahi.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream avahi package and not the avahi package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in Avahi-daemon, which relies on fixed source ports for wide-area DNS queries. This issue simplifies attacks where malicious DNS responses are injected.
