How to fix?

NVD Description

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

An out-of-bounds read in SCRAM authentication response parsing in the MongoDB C Driver can read one byte beyond a fixed-size buffer when processing a malformed server-final message. A server or network intermediary able to provide this message before server-signature verification can cause the application using the driver to terminate. The extra byte is not returned through the protocol.
