high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 420287

Description

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

- Tensorflow is an Open Source Machine Learning Framework. The implementation of `SparseCountSparseOutput`
can be made to crash a TensorFlow process by an integer overflow whose result is then used in a memory
allocation. 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
