Upgrade Debian:9 apt to version 0.9.7.8 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:9 relevant fixed versions and status.
apt 0.8.16, 0.9.7, and possibly other versions does not properly handle InRelease files, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to modify packages before installation via unknown vectors, possibly related to integrity checking and the use of third-party repositories.
