How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:unstable firefox to version 49.0-1 or higher.

NVD Description

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

Buffer overflow in the mozilla::gfx::FilterSupport::ComputeSourceNeededRegions function in Mozilla Firefox before 49.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging improper interaction between empty filters and CANVAS element rendering.
