CVE-2021-29563: TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. An attacker can cause a denial of service by expl
Summary
TensorFlow (an open source platform for machine learning) has a vulnerability where an attacker can crash the program by sending empty data to the RFFT function (a mathematical operation for transforming signals). The crash happens because the underlying code (Eigen, a math library) fails an assertion (a safety check) when it tries to process an empty matrix (a grid of numbers with no values).
Solution / Mitigation
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. The vulnerability will also be patched in earlier versions: TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3, and TensorFlow 2.1.4.
