SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-3ff2-r28g-w7h9)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 409484

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - TensorFlow is an open source platform for machine learning. In affected versions the shape inference
 function for `Transpose` is vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow. This occurs whenever `perm` contains
 negative elements. The shape inference function does not validate that the indices in `perm` are all
 valid. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.7.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow
 2.6.1, TensorFlow 2.5.2, and TensorFlow 2.4.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
 (CVE-2021-41216)
