SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-cgfm-62j4-v4rf)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 413893

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. In affected versions the
 implementation of sparse reduction operations in TensorFlow can trigger accesses outside of bounds of heap
 allocated data. The [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/a1bc56203f21a5a49953118
 25ffaba7a670d7747/tensorflow/core/kernels/sparse_reduce_op.cc#L217-L228) fails to validate that each
 reduction group does not overflow and that each corresponding index does not point to outside the bounds
 of the input tensor. We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 87158f43f05f2720a374f3e6d22a7aaa3a33f750.
 The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.6.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.5.1,
 TensorFlow 2.4.3, and TensorFlow 2.3.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
