CVE-2020-15198: Heap buffer overflow in Tensorflow
(updated )
The SparseCountSparseOutput implementation does not validate that the input arguments form a valid sparse tensor. In particular, there is no validation that the indices tensor has the same shape as the values one. The values in these tensors are always accessed in parallel:
https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/0e68f4d3295eb0281a517c3662f6698992b7b2cf/tensorflow/core/kernels/count_ops.cc#L193-L195
Thus, a shape mismatch can result in accesses outside the bounds of heap allocated buffers.
