Segfault in Tensorflow
Description
In Tensorflow before version 2.3.1, the RaggedCountSparseOutput implementation does not validate that the input arguments form a valid ragged tensor. In particular, there is no validation that the values in the splits tensor generate a valid partitioning of the values tensor. Thus, the code sets up conditions to cause a heap buffer overflow. A BatchedMap is equivalent to a vector where each element is a hashmap. However, if the first element of splits_values is not 0, batch_idx will never be 1, hence there will be no hashmap at index 0 in per_batch_counts. Trying to access that in the user code results in a segmentation fault. The issue is patched in commit 3cbb917b4714766030b28eba9fb41bb97ce9ee02 and is released in TensorFlow version 2.3.1.
