How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 gdk-pixbuf to version 2.31.1-2+deb8u3 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 pixops_scale_nearest function in pixops/pixops.c in gdk-pixbuf before 2.32.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted GIF image file, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
