SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-pgcq-h79j-2f69)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 417509

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 several TensorFlow
 operations are missing validation for the shapes of the tensor arguments involved in the call. Depending
 on the API, this can result in undefined behavior and segfault or `CHECK`-fail related crashes but in some
 scenarios writes and reads from heap populated arrays are also possible. We have discovered these issues
 internally via tooling while working on improving/testing GPU op determinism. As such, we don't have
 reproducers and there will be multiple fixes for these issues. These fixes will be included in TensorFlow
 2.7.0. We will also cherrypick these commits 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-2021-41206)
