Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected libsqlite3-0, libsqlite3-0-32bit, sqlite3 and / or sqlite3-devel packages.
