SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-m539-j985-hcr8)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 416733

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 Keras pooling layers
 can trigger a segfault if the size of the pool is 0 or if a dimension is negative. This is due to the
 TensorFlow's implementation of pooling operations where the values in the sliding window are not checked
 to be strictly positive. 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-2021-41196)
