SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-gjqc-q9g6-q2j3)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 415187

Description

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

- Tensorflow is an Open Source Machine Learning Framework. A malicious user can cause a denial of service by
altering a `SavedModel` such that any binary op would trigger `CHECK` failures. This occurs when the
protobuf part corresponding to the tensor arguments is modified such that the `dtype` no longer matches
the `dtype` expected by the op. In that case, calling the templated binary operator for the binary op
would receive corrupted data, due to the type confusion involved. If `Tin` and `Tout` don't match the type
of data in `out` and `input_*` tensors then `flat<*>` would interpret it wrongly. In most cases, this
would be a silent failure, but we have noticed scenarios where this results in a `CHECK` crash, hence a
denial of service. 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-2022-23583)
