How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:13 imlib2 to version 1.4.7-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream imlib2 package and not the imlib2 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer overflow in imlib2 before 1.4.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or application crash) via a crafted image, which triggers an invalid read operation.
