How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 jquery to version 1.7.2+dfsg-3.2+deb8u6 or higher.

NVD Description

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

jQuery before 3.4.0, as used in Drupal, Backdrop CMS, and other products, mishandles jQuery.extend(true, {}, ...) because of Object.prototype pollution. If an unsanitized source object contained an enumerable proto property, it could extend the native Object.prototype.
