Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability arises from two key issues. First, ValidateInputTensors
does not check for non-empty tensors, allowing invalid inputs. Second, BandedTriangularSolveOpCpu::Compute
does not check the context status after calling ValidateInputTensors
, bypassing TensorFlow's error-handling mechanism (OP_REQUIRES
). Together, these allow empty tensors to trigger a heap buffer overflow. The patches address both issues by adding non-empty checks and explicit status validation.
