How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 cairo to version 1.14.0-2.1+deb8u1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cairo package and not the cairo package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

The fill_xrgb32_lerp_opaque_spans function in cairo-image-compositor.c in cairo before 1.14.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via a negative span length.
