There is no fixed version for Debian:11 gfbgraph.

NVD Description

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

In GNOME libgfbgraph through 0.2.4, gfbgraph-photo.c does not enable TLS certificate verification on the SoupSessionSync objects it creates, leaving users vulnerable to network MITM attacks. NOTE: this is similar to CVE-2016-20011.
