Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in TensorFlow up to 2.3.0 (Artificial Intelligence Software). It has been classified as critical. Affected is the function RaggedCountSparseOutput. The manipulation as part of a Argument leads to a input validation vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

In Tensorflow before version 2.3.1, the `RaggedCountSparseOutput` implementation does not validate that the input arguments form a valid ragged tensor. In particular, there is no validation that the values in the `splits` tensor generate a valid partitioning of the `values` tensor. Hence, the code is prone to heap buffer overflow. If `split_values` does not end with a value at least `num_values` then the `while` loop condition will trigger a read outside of the bounds of `split_values` once `batch_idx` grows too large. The issue is patched in commit 3cbb917b4714766030b28eba9fb41bb97ce9ee02 and is released in TensorFlow version 2.3.1.

The weakness was released 09/25/2020 (GitHub Repository). The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2020-15201 since 06/25/2020. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit.

Upgrading to version 2.3.1 eliminates this vulnerability. Applying the patch 3cbb917b4714766030b28eba9fb41bb97ce9ee02 is able to eliminate this problem. The best possible mitigation is suggested to be upgrading to the latest version.
