Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

A segfault in the simplifyBroadcast function in TensorFlow, which is in the MLIR-TFRT infrastructure, affects the tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu and tensorflow-gpu packages from 2.8.0-rc0 up to but not including 2.8.0. The source says it is triggered when the function is called with all scalar shapes, causing a denial of service. Upgrade to TensorFlow 2.8.0, which includes the fix.
