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 NULL Pointer Dereference. The code for tf.raw_ops.UncompressElement can be made to trigger a null pointer dereference. The implementation obtains a pointer to a CompressedElement from a Variant tensor and then proceeds to dereference it for decompressing. There is no check that the Variant tensor contained a CompressedElement, so the pointer is actually nullptr.
