SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-pg59-2f92-5cph)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 417502

Description

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

- In Tensorflow version 2.3.0, the `SparseCountSparseOutput` and `RaggedCountSparseOutput` implementations
don't validate that the `weights` tensor has the same shape as the data. The check exists for
`DenseCountSparseOutput`, where both tensors are fully specified. In the sparse and ragged count weights
are still accessed in parallel with the data. But, since there is no validation, a user passing fewer
weights than the values for the tensors can generate a read from outside the bounds of the heap buffer
allocated for the weights. The issue is patched in commit 3cbb917b4714766030b28eba9fb41bb97ce9ee02 and is
released in TensorFlow version 2.3.1. (CVE-2020-15196)
