CVE-2022-29206: NULL Pointer Dereference

May 20, 2022 (updated June 2, 2022)

TensorFlow is an open source platform for machine learning. Prior to versions 2.9.0, 2.8.1, 2.7.2, and 2.6.4, the implementation of tf.raw_ops.SparseTensorDenseAdd does not fully validate the input arguments. In this case, a reference gets bound to a nullptr during kernel execution. This is undefined behavior. Versions 2.9.0, 2.8.1, 2.7.2, and 2.6.4 contain a patch for this issue.
