It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-37649 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- tensorflow (Bitnami): affected from 2.3.0; fixed in 2.3.4, 2.4.3, 2.5.1\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.3.4\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.3.4\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected from 2.3.0; fixed in 2.3.4, 2.4.3\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected from 2.4.0; fixed in 2.4.3\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected from 2.4.0; fixed in 2.4.3\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected from 2.5.0; fixed in 2.5.1\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected from 2.5.0; fixed in 2.5.1\n- tensorflow-cpu (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.3.4\n- tensorflow-cpu (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.3.4\n- tensorflow-cpu (PyPI): affected from 2.3.0; fixed in 2.3.4, 2.4.3\n- tensorflow-cpu (PyPI): affected from 2.4.0; fixed in 2.4.3\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-37649/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-37649/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-37649","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-37649/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-37649","record":{"aliases":["BIT-tensorflow-2021-37649","GHSA-6gv8-p3vj-pxvr","PYSEC-2021-271","PYSEC-2021-562","PYSEC-2021-760"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"TensorFlow machine learning library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service in TensorFlow by triggering a null pointer dereference in the UncompressElement operation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"tensorflow","vendor":"google"}],"cvss":{"score":7.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. The code for `tf.raw_ops.UncompressElement` can be made to trigger a null pointer dereference. The [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/f24faa153ad31a4b51578f8181d3aaab77a1ddeb/tensorflow/core/kernels/data/experimental/compression_ops.cc#L50-L53) obtains a pointer to a `CompressedElement` from a `Variant` tensor and then proceeds to dereference it for decompressing. There is no check that the `Variant` tensor contained a `CompressedElement`, so the pointer is actually `nullptr`. We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 7bdf50bb4f5c54a4997c379092888546c97c3ebd. The 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.","ecosystems":["Bitnami","PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Null
