How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 libexif to version 0.6.16-2.1 or higher.

NVD Description

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

Integer overflow in libexif 0.6.16 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via an image with crafted EXIF tags, possibly involving the exif_data_load_data_thumbnail function in exif-data.c.
