How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 apt to version 0.7.25 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 0.7.x before 0.7.25 and 0.8.x before 0.8.16, when using the apt-key net-update to import keyrings, relies on GnuPG argument order and does not check GPG subkeys, which might allow remote attackers to install Trojan horse packages via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.
