  "summary": "Heap out of bounds access in sparse reduction operations",
  "details": "### Impact\nThe implementation of sparse reduction operations in TensorFlow can trigger accesses outside of bounds of heap allocated data:\n\n```python\nimport tensorflow as tf\n\nx = tf.SparseTensor(\n      indices=[[773, 773, 773], [773, 773, 773]],\n      values=[1, 1],\n      dense_shape=[337, 337, 337])\ntf.sparse.reduce_sum(x, 1)\n```\n\nThe [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/a1bc56203f21a5a4995311825ffaba7a670d7747/tensorflow/core/kernels/sparse_reduce_op.cc#L217-L228) fails to validate that each reduction group does not overflow and that each corresponding index does not point to outside the bounds of the input tensor.\n\n### Patches\nWe have patched the issue in GitHub commit [87158f43f05f2720a374f3e6d22a7aaa3a33f750](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/87158f43f05f2720a374f3e6d22a7aaa3a33f750). \n\nThe fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.6.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.5.1, TensorFlow 2.4.3, and TensorFlow 2.3.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.\n\n### For more information\nPlease consult [our security guide](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/SECURITY.md) for more information regarding the security model and how to contact us with issues and questions.\n\n### Attribution\nThis vulnerability has been reported by members of the Aivul Team from Qihoo 360.",
