How to fix?

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dcraw package and not the dcraw package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:19.10 relevant fixed versions and status.

A stack-based buffer overflow in the find_green() function of dcraw through 9.28, as used in ufraw-batch and many other products, may allow a remote attacker to cause a control-flow hijack, denial-of-service, or unspecified other impact via a maliciously crafted raw photo file.
