Upgrade Debian:8 systemd to version 215-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream systemd package and not the systemd package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
tmpfiles.d/systemd.conf in systemd before 214 uses weak permissions for journal files under (1) /run/log/journal/%m and (2) /var/log/journal/%m, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading these files.
