GitHub Security Advisory

Reachable Assertion in Tensorflow

✓ GitHub Reviewed HIGH Has CVE

Advisory Details

### Impact
When decoding a resource handle tensor from protobuf, a TensorFlow process can encounter cases where a `CHECK` assertion is invalidated based on user controlled arguments. This allows attackers to cause denial of services in TensorFlow processes.

### Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [14fea662350e7c26eb5fe1be2ac31704e5682ee6](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/14fea662350e7c26eb5fe1be2ac31704e5682ee6).

The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.7.1, TensorFlow 2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range.

### For more information
