How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 imagemagick to version 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-11+deb9u10 or higher.

NVD Description

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

In ImageMagick 7.0.7-29 and earlier, a missing NULL check in ReadOneJNGImage in coders/png.c allows an attacker to cause a denial of service (WriteBlob assertion failure and application exit) via a crafted file.
