TFSA-2021-168: A use of uninitialized value vulnerability in Tensorflow

CVE Number

CVE-2021-41225

Impact

TensorFlow's Grappler optimizer has a use of unitialized variable:

  const NodeDef* dequeue_node;
  for (const auto& train_node : train_nodes) {
    if (IsDequeueOp(*train_node)) {
      dequeue_node = train_node;
      break;
    }
  }

  if (dequeue_node) {
    ...
  }

If the train_nodes vector (obtained from the saved model that gets optimized) does not contain a Dequeue node, then dequeue_node is left unitialized.

Patches

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 68867bf01239d9e1048f98cbad185bf4761bedd3.

The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.7.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.6.1, TensorFlow 2.5.2, and TensorFlow 2.4.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
