SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-8r7c-3cm2-3h8f)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 412828

Description

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

- Tensorflow is an Open Source Machine Learning Framework. If a graph node is invalid, TensorFlow can leak
memory in the implementation of `ImmutableExecutorState::Initialize`. Here, we set `item->kernel` to
`nullptr` but it is a simple `OpKernel*` pointer so the memory that was previously allocated to it would
leak. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow
2.7.1, TensorFlow 2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
(CVE-2022-23578)
