How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:10 unbound to version 1.4.10-1 or higher.

NVD Description

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

daemon/worker.c in Unbound 1.x before 1.4.10, when debugging functionality and the interface-automatic option are enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) via a crafted DNS request that triggers improper error handling.
