SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-393f-2jr3-cp69)

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 409417

Description

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

 - TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. An attacker can trigger a denial of
 service via a `CHECK` failure by passing an empty image to `tf.raw_ops.DrawBoundingBoxes`. This is because
 the implementation(https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/ea34a18dc3f5c8d80a40ccca1404f343b5d55f91/
 tensorflow/core/kernels/image/draw_bounding_box_op.cc#L148-L165) uses `CHECK_*` assertions instead of
 `OP_REQUIRES` to validate user controlled inputs. Whereas `OP_REQUIRES` allows returning an error
 condition back to the user, the `CHECK_*` macros result in a crash if the condition is false, similar to
 `assert`. In this case, `height` is 0 from the `images` input. This results in `max_box_row_clamp` being
 negative and the assertion being falsified, followed by aborting program execution. The fix will be
 included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3,
 TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
 (CVE-2021-29533)
