How to fix?

Upgrade tensorflow to version 2.4.2, 2.3.3, 2.2.3, 2.1.4 or higher.

Overview

tensorflow is a machine learning framework.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds. Incomplete validation in SparseAdd results in allowing attackers to exploit undefined behavior (dereferencing null pointers) as well as write outside of bounds of heap allocated data. The implementation has a large set of validation for the two sparse tensor inputs (6 tensors in total), but does not validate that the tensors are not empty or that the second dimension of *_indices matches the size of corresponding *_shape. This allows attackers to send tensor triples that represent invalid sparse tensors to abuse code assumptions that are not protected by validation.
