Descriptions

TensorFlow is an open source platform for machine learning. In affected versions the async implementation of `CollectiveReduceV2` suffers from a memory leak and a use after free. This occurs due to the asynchronous computation and the fact that objects that have been `std::move()`d from are still accessed. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.7.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.6.1, as this version is the only one that is also affected.

TensorFlow es una plataforma de código abierto para el aprendizaje automático. En las versiones afectadas, la implementación asíncrona de "CollectiveReduceV2" sufre una perdida de memoria y un uso de memoria previamente liberada. Esto ocurre debido al cálculo asíncrono y al hecho de que se sigue accediendo a los objetos que han sido "std::move()"d. La corrección será incluida en TensorFlow versión 2.7.0. También seleccionaremos este commit en TensorFlow versión 2.6.1, ya que esta versión es la única que también está afectada
