QID 982505: Python (pip) Security Update for tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-6g85-3hm8-83f9)

Security update has been released for tensorflow,tensorflow-cpu,tensorflow-gpu 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.

An attacker can trigger a denial of service via a `CHECK`-fail in `tf.raw_ops.QuantizeAndDequantizeV4Grad`:

```python
import tensorflow as tf

gradient_tensor = tf.constant([0.0], shape=[1])
input_tensor = tf.constant([0.0], shape=[1])
input_min = tf.constant([[0.0]], shape=[1, 1])
input_max = tf.constant([[0.0]], shape=[1, 1])

tf.raw_ops.QuantizeAndDequantizeV4Grad(
gradients=gradient_tensor, input=input_tensor,
input_min=input_min, input_max=input_max, axis=0)
```

This is because the [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/95078c145b5a7a43ee046144005f733092756ab5/tensorflow/core/kernels/quantize_and_dequantize_op.cc#L162-L163) does not validate the rank of the `input_*` tensors. In turn, this results in the tensors being passes as they are to [`QuantizeAndDequantizePerChannelGradientImpl`](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/95078c145b5a7a43ee046144005f733092756ab5/tensorflow/core/kernels/quantize_and_dequantize_op.h#L295-L306):

```cc
template <typename Device, typename T>
struct QuantizeAndDequantizePerChannelGradientImpl {
static void Compute(const Device& d,
typename TTypes<T, 3>::ConstTensor gradient,
typename TTypes<T, 3>::ConstTensor input,
const Tensor* input_min_tensor,
const Tensor* input_max_tensor,
typename TTypes<T, 3>::Tensor input_backprop,
typename TTypes<T>::Flat input_min_backprop,
typename TTypes<T>::Flat input_max_backprop) {
...
auto input_min = input_min_tensor->vec<T>();
auto input_max = input_max_tensor->vec<T>();
...
}
```

However, the `vec<T>` method, requires the rank to 1 and triggers a `CHECK` failure otherwise.

  • 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 [20431e9044cf2ad3c0323c34888b192f3289af6b](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/20431e9044cf2ad3c0323c34888b192f3289af6b).

    The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2 as this is the only other affected version.
