GHSA-Q8GV-Q7WR-9JF8
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2020-09-25 18:28 – Updated: 2024-10-28 14:47Impact
In eager mode, TensorFlow does not set the session state. Hence, calling tf.raw_ops.GetSessionHandle or tf.raw_ops.GetSessionHandleV2 results in a null pointer dereference:
https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/0e68f4d3295eb0281a517c3662f6698992b7b2cf/tensorflow/core/kernels/session_ops.cc#L45
In the above snippet, in eager mode, ctx->session_state() returns nullptr. Since code immediately dereferences this, we get a segmentation fault.
Patches
We have patched the issue in 9a133d73ae4b4664d22bd1aa6d654fec13c52ee1 and will release patch releases for all versions between 1.15 and 2.3.
We recommend users to upgrade to TensorFlow 1.15.4, 2.0.3, 2.1.2, 2.2.1, or 2.3.1.
