TFSA-2022-078: Missing validation causes denial of service via Conv3DBackpropFilterV2

CVE Number

CVE-2022-29204

Impact

The implementation of tf.raw_ops.UnsortedSegmentJoin does not fully validate the input arguments. This results in a CHECK-failure which can be used to trigger a denial of service attack:

import tensorflow as tf

tf.strings.unsorted_segment_join(
  inputs=['123'],
  segment_ids=[0],
  num_segments=-1)

The code assumes num_segments is a positive scalar but there is no validation:

const Tensor& num_segments_tensor = context->input(2);
auto num_segments = num_segments_tensor.scalar<NUM_SEGMENTS_TYPE>()();
// ...
Tensor* output_tensor = nullptr;
TensorShape output_shape =
    GetOutputShape(input_shape, segment_id_shape, num_segments);

Since this value is used to allocate the output tensor, a negative value would result in a CHECK-failure (assertion failure), as per TFSA-2021-198.

Patches

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 84563f265f28b3c36a15335c8b005d405260e943 and GitHub commit 20cb18724b0bf6c09071a3f53434c4eec53cc147.

The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.9.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.8.1, TensorFlow 2.7.2, and TensorFlow 2.6.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
