How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:10 apt to version 1.0.9 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream apt package and not the apt package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

APT before 1.0.9 does not "invalidate repository data" when moving from an unauthenticated to authenticated state, which allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via crafted repository data.
