How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 libxslt to version 1.1.28-2+deb8u4 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libxslt package and not the libxslt package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

libxslt through 1.1.33 allows bypass of a protection mechanism because callers of xsltCheckRead and xsltCheckWrite permit access even upon receiving a -1 error code. xsltCheckRead can return -1 for a crafted URL that is not actually invalid and is subsequently loaded.
