How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 drupal7 to version 7.29-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream drupal7 package and not the drupal7 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

The File module in Drupal 7.x before 7.29 does not properly check permissions to view files, which allows remote authenticated users with certain permissions to bypass intended restrictions and read files by attaching the file to content with a file field.
