GCVE Workshop - 22 September 2026 (14:00-18:00), Luxembourg Before The Vulnopticon Conference - Registration

PYSEC-2020-309

Vulnerability from pysec - Published: 2020-09-25 19:15 - Updated: 2021-12-09 06:35
VLAI
Details

In Tensorflow before versions 1.15.4, 2.0.3, 2.1.2, 2.2.1 and 2.3.1, the SparseFillEmptyRowsGrad implementation has incomplete validation of the shapes of its arguments. Although reverse_index_map_t and grad_values_t are accessed in a similar pattern, only reverse_index_map_t is validated to be of proper shape. Hence, malicious users can pass a bad grad_values_t to trigger an assertion failure in vec, causing denial of service in serving installations. The issue is patched in commit 390611e0d45c5793c7066110af37c8514e6a6c54, and is released in TensorFlow versions 1.15.4, 2.0.3, 2.1.2, 2.2.1, or 2.3.1."
