How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:14 netris to version 0.52-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream netris package and not the netris package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:14 relevant fixed versions and status.

Buffer overflow in Netris 0.52 and earlier, and possibly other versions, allows remote malicious Netris servers to execute arbitrary code on netris clients via a long server response.
