How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:12 tor to version 0.2.1.30-1 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:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

Buffer overflow in the policy_summarize function in or/policies.c in Tor before 0.2.1.30 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (directory authority crash) via a crafted policy that triggers creation of a long port list.
