How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 sane-backends to version 1.0.24-8+deb8u3 or higher.

NVD Description

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

A NULL pointer dereference in sanei_epson_net_read in SANE Backends before 1.0.30 allows a malicious device connected to the same local network as the victim to cause a denial of service, aka GHSL-2020-075.
