How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 sqlite.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream sqlite package and not the sqlite package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

os_unix.c in SQLite before 3.13.0 improperly implements the temporary directory search algorithm, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service (application crash), or have unspecified other impact by leveraging use of the current working directory for temporary files.
