Upgrade tensorflow
to version 2.5.1, 2.4.3, 2.3.4 or higher.
Overview
tensorflow is a machine learning framework.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer Overflow. The implementation of tf.raw_ops.StringNGrams
is vulnerable to an integer overflow issue caused by converting a signed integer value to an unsigned one and then allocating memory based on this value. The implementation calls reserve
on a tstring
with a value that sometimes can be negative if user supplies negative ngram_widths
. The reserve
method calls TF_TString_Reserve
which has an unsigned long
argument for the size of the buffer. Hence, the implicit conversion transforms the negative value to a large integer.
