CVE-2021-41203: Missing validation during checkpoint loading
(updated )
An attacker can trigger undefined behavior, integer overflows, segfaults and CHECK-fail crashes if they can change saved checkpoints from outside of TensorFlow.
This is because the checkpoints loading infrastructure is missing validation for invalid file formats.
