How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:16.0.0 bind-modules-sqlite3 to version 9.20.15-160000.1.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bind-modules-sqlite3 package and not the bind-modules-sqlite3 package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

In specific circumstances, due to a weakness in the Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG) that is used, it is possible for an attacker to predict the source port and query ID that BIND will use. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.16.0 through 9.16.50, 9.18.0 through 9.18.39, 9.20.0 through 9.20.13, 9.21.0 through 9.21.12, 9.16.8-S1 through 9.16.50-S1, 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.39-S1, and 9.20.9-S1 through 9.20.13-S1.
