There is no fixed version for Debian:9 resiprocate.

NVD Description

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

Buffer overflow in the ares_parse_a_reply function in the embedded ares library in ReSIProcate before 1.12.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds-read) via a crafted DNS response.
