SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-cq76-mxrc-vchh)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 414021

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 the implementation of
 `tf.math.segment_*` operations results in a `CHECK`-fail related abort (and denial of service) if a
 segment id in `segment_ids` is large. This is similar to CVE-2021-29584 (and similar other reported
 vulnerabilities in TensorFlow, localized to specific APIs): the implementation (both on CPU and GPU)
 computes the output shape using `AddDim`. However, if the number of elements in the tensor overflows an
 `int64_t` value, `AddDim` results in a `CHECK` failure which provokes a `std::abort`. Instead, code should
 use `AddDimWithStatus`. 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-2021-41195)
