GHSA-V768-W7M9-2VMM
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2021-08-25 14:41 – Updated: 2024-11-13 21:13Impact
An attacker can cause undefined behavior via binding a reference to null pointer in tf.raw_ops.SparseFillEmptyRows:
import tensorflow as tf
tf.compat.v1.disable_v2_behavior()
tf.raw_ops.SparseFillEmptyRows(
indices = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 0], dtype=tf.int64),
values = tf.constant([], shape=[0], dtype=tf.int64),
dense_shape = tf.constant([], shape=[0], dtype=tf.int64),
default_value = 0)
The shape inference implementation does not validate that the input arguments are not empty tensors.
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 578e634b4f1c1c684d4b4294f9e5281b2133b3ed.
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.6.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.5.1, TensorFlow 2.4.3, and TensorFlow 2.3.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
For more information
Please consult our security guide for more information regarding the security model and how to contact us with issues and questions.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-03 03:30 – Updated: 2024-05-03 03:30Ashlar-Vellum Cobalt XE File Parsing Uninitialized Memory Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Ashlar-Vellum Cobalt. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the parsing of XE files. The issue results from the lack of proper initialization of memory prior to accessing it. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-20200.
