SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-pfjj-m3jj-9jc9)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 417483

Description

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

- Tensorflow is an Open Source Machine Learning Framework. The implementation of `SparseTensorSliceDataset`
has an undefined behavior: under certain condition it can be made to dereference a `nullptr` value. The 3
input arguments to `SparseTensorSliceDataset` represent a sparse tensor. However, there are some
preconditions that these arguments must satisfy but these are not validated in the implementation. The fix
will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.7.1, TensorFlow
2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range. (CVE-2022-21736)
