SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-452g-f7fp-9jf7)

low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 409949

Description

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

 - TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. Calling TF operations with tensors
 of non-numeric types when the operations expect numeric tensors result in null pointer dereferences. The
 conversion from Python array to C++ array(https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/ff70c47a396ef1e3cb
 73c90513da4f5cb71bebba/tensorflow/python/lib/core/ndarray_tensor.cc#L113-L169) is vulnerable to a type
 confusion. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow
 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4, as these are also affected and still in
 supported range. (CVE-2021-29513)
