Descriptions

TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. An attacker can cause a segfault and denial of service via accessing data outside of bounds in `tf.raw_ops.QuantizedBatchNormWithGlobalNormalization`. This is because the implementation(https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/55a97caa9e99c7f37a0bbbeb414dc55553d3ae7f/tensorflow/core/kernels/quantized_batch_norm_op.cc#L176-L189) assumes the inputs are not empty. If any of these inputs is empty, `.flat<T>()` is an empty buffer, so accessing the element at index 0 is accessing data outside of bounds. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.

TensorFlow es una plataforma de código abierto de extremo a extremo para el aprendizaje automático. Un atacante puede causar un fallo secundario y una denegación de servicio por medio del acceso a datos fuera de límites en "tf.raw_ops.QuantizedBatchNormWithGlobalNormalization". Esto es debido a que la implementación (https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/55a97caa9e99c7f37a0bbbeb414dc55553d3ae7f/tensorflow/core/kernels/quantized_batch_norm_op.cc#L176-L189) asume que las entradas no están vacías. Si alguna de estas entradas está vacía, ".flat(T)()" es un búfer vacío, por lo que acceder al elemento en el índice 0 es acceder a datos fuera de límites. La corrección será incluida en TensorFlow versión 2.5.0. También seleccionaremos este commit en TensorFlow versión 2.4.2, TensorFlow versión 2.3.3, TensorFlow versión 2.2.3 y TensorFlow versión 2.1.4, ya que estos también están afectados y aún están en el rango compatible
