CVE-2021-41225: A use of uninitialized value vulnerability in Tensorflow

November 10, 2021 (updated November 13, 2024)

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.
