AVID-2026-R1194
Description
TensorFlow vulnerable to seg fault in tf.raw_ops.Print (CVE-2023-25660)
Details
TensorFlow is an open source platform for machine learning. Prior to versions 2.12.0 and 2.11.1, when the parameter summarize of tf.raw_ops.Print is zero, the new method SummarizeArray<bool> will reference to a nullptr, leading to a seg fault. A fix is included in TensorFlow version 2.12 and version 2.11.1.
Reason for inclusion in AVID: CVE-2023-25660 describes a NULL pointer dereference in TensorFlow’s tf.raw_ops.Print causing a segfault in versions prior to 2.12.0 and 2.11.1. This is a security vulnerability in a core ML software component used to build/deploy AI systems, with published fixes. It affects the software supply chain for general-purpose AI systems (TensorFlow and related tooling), not hardware/firmware. The report includes CVE, affected versions, impact (availability), and remediation, providing sufficient signal for classification.
