How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Debian:11 sane-backends.

NVD Description

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

Sane 1.2.1 heap bounds overwrite in init_options() from backend/test.c via a long init_mode string in a configuration file. NOTE: this is disputed because there is no expectation that test.c code should be executed with an attacker-controlled configuration file.
