Improper Input Validation

CVE-2020-15190

Severity Medium
Score 5.3/10

Summary

In Tensorflow before versions 1.15.4, 2.0.x before 2.0.3, 2.1.x before 2.1.2, 2.2.x before 2.2.1 and 2.3.x before 2.3.1, the `tf.raw_ops.Switch` operation takes as input a tensor and a boolean and outputs two tensors. Depending on the boolean value, one of the tensors is exactly the input tensor whereas the other one should be an empty tensor. However, the eager runtime traverses all tensors in the output. Since only one of the tensors is defined, the other one is `nullptr`, hence we are binding a reference to `nullptr`. This is undefined behavior and reported as an error if compiling with `-fsanitize=null`.
