SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-8gv3-57p6-g35r)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 412668

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. An attacker can cause a heap buffer
 overflow in `tf.raw_ops.RaggedTensorToTensor`. This is because the implementation(https://github.com/tenso
 rflow/tensorflow/blob/d94227d43aa125ad8b54115c03cece54f6a1977b/tensorflow/core/kernels/ragged_tensor_to_te
 nsor_op.cc#L219-L222) uses the same index to access two arrays in parallel. Since the user controls the
 shape of the input arguments, an attacker could trigger a heap OOB access when `parent_output_index` is
 shorter than `row_split`. 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-2021-29560)
