An attacker can trigger a null pointer…","summary":"TensorFlow is affected by CVE-2021-29530, a null pointer dereference that an attacker can trigger by supplying an invalid `permutation` to `tf.raw_ops.SparseMatrixSparseCholesky`. The implementation fails to validate its input arguments properly: because the `OP_REQUIRES` macro only exits the current function, the caller of `ValidateInputs` keeps executing after a failed check.","solution":"The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. The commit will also be cherrypicked to TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4. The source gives the fix approach as either explicitly checking `context->status()` or converting `ValidateInputs` to return a `Status`.","labels":["security"],"sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-29530","publishedAt":"2021-05-15T00:15:11.983Z","cveId":"CVE-2021-29530","cweIds":["CWE-476"],"cvssScore":"2.5","cvssSeverity":"low","severity":"low","attackType":["denial_of_service"],"issueType":"vulnerability","affectedPackages":["tensorflow@<
