CVE-2021-29559 Information

Description

TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. An attacker can access data outside of bounds of heap allocated array in tf.raw_ops.UnicodeEncode. This is because the implementation(https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/472c1f12ad9063405737679d4f6bd43094e1d36d/tensorflow/core/kernels/unicode_ops.cc) assumes that the input_value/input_splits pair specify a valid sparse tensor. 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.
