How to fix?

Upgrade tensorflow-cpu to version 2.5.1, 2.4.3, 2.3.4 or higher.

Overview

tensorflow-cpu is a machine learning framework.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to NULL Pointer Dereference. If a user does not provide a valid padding value to tf.raw_ops.MatrixDiagPartOp, then the code triggers a null pointer dereference (if input is empty) or produces invalid behavior, ignoring all values after the first. The implementation reads the first value from a tensor buffer without first checking that the tensor has values to read from.
