How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 cups to version 1.3.5-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cups package and not the cups package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer underflow in the asn1_get_string function in the SNMP back end (backend/snmp.c) for CUPS 1.2 through 1.3.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted SNMP response that triggers a stack-based buffer overflow.
