SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-844w-j86r-4x2j)

low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 423491

Description

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

 - In TensorFlow before 1.15, a heap buffer overflow in UnsortedSegmentSum can be produced when the Index
 template argument is int32. In this case data_size and num_segments fields are truncated from int64 to
 int32 and can produce negative numbers, resulting in accessing out of bounds heap memory. This is unlikely
 to be exploitable and was detected and fixed internally in TensorFlow 1.15 and 2.0. (CVE-2019-16778)
