VLAI?
Summary
Undefined behavior in Tensorflow
Details

Impact

If a user passes an invalid argument to dlpack.to_dlpack the expected validations will cause variables to bind to nullptr while setting a status variable to the error condition.

However, this status argument is not properly checked: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/0e68f4d3295eb0281a517c3662f6698992b7b2cf/tensorflow/c/eager/dlpack.cc#L265-L267

Hence, code following these methods will bind references to null pointers: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/0e68f4d3295eb0281a517c3662f6698992b7b2cf/tensorflow/c/eager/dlpack.cc#L279-L285

This is undefined behavior and reported as an error if compiling with -fsanitize=null.

Patches

We have patched the issue in 22e07fb204386768e5bcbea563641ea11f96ceb8 and will release a patch release for all affected versions.

We recommend users to upgrade to TensorFlow 2.2.1 or 2.3.1.
