QID 980187: Python (pip) Security Update for tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-cpf4-wx82-gxp6)

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 [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/e71b86d47f8bc1816bf54d7bddc4170e47670b97/tensorflow/core/kernels/split_v_op.cc#L49-L205) of `SplitV` can trigger a segfault is an attacker supplies negative arguments:

```python
import tensorflow as tf

tf.raw_ops.SplitV(
value=tf.constant([]),
size_splits=[-1, -2]
,axis=0,
num_split=2)
```

This occurs whenever `size_splits` contains more than one value and at least one value is negative.

CVSS V3 rated as Medium - 5.5 severity.

CVSS V2 rated as Low - 2.1 severity.

Solution

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [25d622ffc432acc736b14ca3904177579e733cc6](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/25d622ffc432acc736b14ca3904177579e733cc6).

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.
