SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-mq5c-prh3-3f3h)

low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 417079

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. The validation in
`tf.raw_ops.QuantizeAndDequantizeV2` allows invalid values for `axis` argument:. The validation(https://gi
thub.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/eccb7ec454e6617738554a255d77f08e60ee0808/tensorflow/core/kernels/quant
ize_and_dequantize_op.cc#L74-L77) uses `||` to mix two different conditions. If `axis_ < -1` the condition
in `OP_REQUIRES` will still be true, but this value of `axis_` results in heap underflow. This allows
attackers to read/write to other data on the heap. 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-2021-29610)
