How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 djvulibre to version 3.5.27.1-7+deb9u1 or higher.

NVD Description

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

In DjVuLibre 3.5.27, the bitmap reader component allows attackers to cause a denial-of-service error (resource exhaustion caused by a GBitmap::read_rle_raw infinite loop) by crafting a corrupted image file, related to libdjvu/DjVmDir.cpp and libdjvu/GBitmap.cpp.
