SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-xrqm-fpgr-6hhx)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 420657

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 while calculating the
size of the output within the `tf.range` kernel, there is a conditional statement of type `int64 =
condition ? int64 : double`. Due to C++ implicit conversion rules, both branches of the condition will be
cast to `double` and the result would be truncated before the assignment. This result in overflows. 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-2021-41202)
