SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-2p25-55c9-h58q)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 408999

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 if `tf.tile` is called
with a large input argument then the TensorFlow process will crash due to a `CHECK`-failure caused by an
overflow. The number of elements in the output tensor is too much for the `int64_t` type and the overflow
is detected via a `CHECK` statement. This aborts the process. 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-2021-41198)
