SCA: security update for tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-w4xf-2pqw-5mq7)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 419704

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 an attacker
can cause undefined behavior via binding a reference to null pointer in
`tf.raw_ops.RaggedTensorToVariant`. The [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/460
e000de3a83278fb00b61a16d161b1964f15f4/tensorflow/core/kernels/ragged_tensor_to_variant_op.cc#L129) has an
incomplete validation of the splits values, missing the case when the argument would be empty. We have
patched the issue in GitHub commit be7a4de6adfbd303ce08be4332554dff70362612. 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-2021-37666)
