GitHub Security Advisory

Segfault while copying constant resource tensor

✓ GitHub Reviewed MODERATE Has CVE

Advisory Details

### Impact
During TensorFlow's Grappler optimizer phase, constant folding might attempt to deep copy a resource tensor. This results in a segfault, as these tensors are supposed to not change.

### Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [7731e8dfbe4a56773be5dc94d631611211156659](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/7731e8dfbe4a56773be5dc94d631611211156659).

The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.7.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.6.1, TensorFlow 2.5.2, and TensorFlow 2.4.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
