SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-qfpc-5pjr-mh26)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 418098

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. In affected versions the shape
 inference code for `tf.raw_ops.Dequantize` has a vulnerability that could trigger a denial of service via
 a segfault if an attacker provides invalid arguments. The shape inference [implementation](https://github.
 com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/460e000de3a83278fb00b61a16d161b1964f15f4/tensorflow/core/ops/array_ops.cc#L
 2999-L3014) uses `axis` to select between two different values for `minmax_rank` which is then used to
 retrieve tensor dimensions. However, code assumes that `axis` can be either `-1` or a value greater than
 `-1`, with no validation for the other values. We have patched the issue in GitHub commit
 da857cfa0fde8f79ad0afdbc94e88b5d4bbec764. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.6.0. We will also
 cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.5.1, TensorFlow 2.4.3, and TensorFlow 2.3.4, as these are also
 affected and still in supported range. (CVE-2021-37677)
