According to this answer only reinstalling is the way.

it quotes

Incase the getAttribute.js file doesn't gets downloaded properly Selenium and webdriver modules may not work properly. The issue can arise if the Selenium Client encounters any error during its transmission or storage.

Selenium Team is currently working on the issue SeleniumHQ/selenium/5378 to generate the binary checksum of the Downloaded Selenium Client which will help you to avoid encountering errors which may have been introduced during its transmission or storage.

Try first uninstalling:

pip uninstall selenium

Then install it again:

pip install selenium --upgrade
