Summary
TensorFlow, an open source machine learning platform, has a vulnerability where an attacker can crash the program through a denial of service attack by sending specially crafted input to the `SparseConcat` function. The problem occurs because the code uses a `CHECK` operation (a safety check that crashes the program if something goes wrong) instead of safer error-handling methods like `BuildTensorShapeBase` or `AddDimWithStatus`.
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.
