Tensorflow — Vulnerability (CVE-2022-23595)
Date: 2022-02
Affected: google/tensorflow
Attack vector: dos
Category: vulnerability-disclosure
Severity: Medium
CVE: CVE-2022-23595
CWE: CWE-476
CVSS: 5.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

Tensorflow is an Open Source Machine Learning Framework. When building an XLA compilation cache, if default settings are used, TensorFlow triggers a null pointer dereference. In the default scenario, all devices are allowed, so `flr->config_proto` is `nullptr`. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.7.1, TensorFlow 2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
