3 ways, offhand...

1- Use "Dip To Color" transition, make the color white, the duration about 8-4 frames.

2- Make a white slug, fade it in and out for only 8-3 frames of full opacity.

3- Buy a third party transition plugin that is a "Flash Effect".

Basically you're imitating a photography flash bulb.

Default Animate a color correction filter

I would animate a color correction filter over a few frames. It will look more like camera overexposure. Just animate the highlights and blow them out while still keeping the blacks.

I like this as the most representative of the effect, also the hardest to figure out (altho once you have it you can duplicate it), but half of the effect is also the camera movement, so without that already in the can, the flash might not give the same feeling.
(fade to color-white is the easiest)

Too Much Too Soon has a free "Flashframe" transition that does this better than any fake we could come up with, and it's "free". Man, the look of shear terror in my students faces when I try to show them how to keyframe the 3-Way CC in FCP, dude, I'd stay away from that... LOL!

Yeah, keyframe some jump in the movement during the transition section. Good idea Gretta.

I think TMTS's "free" transition would be a much more realistic effect and much easier approach.
