How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 cups to version 1.7.4-2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cups package and not the cups package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

The web interface in CUPS before 2.0 does not check that files have world-readable permissions, which allows remote attackers to obtains sensitive information via unspecified vectors.
