How to fix?

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

Overview

tensorflow-cpu is a machine learning framework.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to NULL Pointer Dereference. The GetVariableInput function can return a null pointer but GetTensorData assumes that the argument is always a valid tensor. Furthermore, because GetVariableInput calls GetMutableInput which might return nullptr, the tensor->is_variable expression can also trigger a null pointer exception.
