How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 openssl1.0 to version 1.0.2t-1~deb9u1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openssl1.0 package and not the openssl1.0 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

In situations where an attacker receives automated notification of the success or failure of a decryption attempt an attacker, after sending a very large number of messages to be decrypted, can recover a CMS/PKCS7 transported encryption key or decrypt any RSA encrypted message that was encrypted with the public RSA key, using a Bleichenbacher padding oracle attack. Applications are not affected if they use a certificate together with the private RSA key to the CMS_decrypt or PKCS7_decrypt functions to select the correct recipient info to decrypt. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1d (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1c). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.0l (Affected 1.1.0-1.1.0k). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2t (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2s).
