An attacker can cause a denial of service via `CHECK`-fail in `tf.strings.substr` with invalid arguments.

MEDIUM 5.5EPSS 0.23%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. An attacker can cause a denial of service via `CHECK`-fail in `tf.strings.substr` with invalid arguments. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
