How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 gdk-pixbuf to version 2.31.1-2+deb8u4 or higher.

NVD Description

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

Integer overflow in the make_filter_table function in pixops/pixops.c in gdk-pixbuf before 2.31.5, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2 on Linux, Google Chrome on Linux, and other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) via crafted bitmap dimensions that are mishandled during scaling.
