How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:16.04 libzstd to version 1.3.1+dfsg-1~ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm3 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libzstd package and not the libzstd package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:16.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

Beginning in v1.4.1 and prior to v1.4.9, due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2021-24031, the Zstandard command-line utility created output files with default permissions and restricted those permissions immediately afterwards. Output files could therefore momentarily be readable or writable to unintended parties.
