QID 980178: Python (pip) Security Update for tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-h67m-xg8f-fxcf)
Security update has been released for tensorflow-gpu,tensorflow,tensorflow-cpu to fix the vulnerability.
Note: The preceding description block is extracted directly from the security advisory. Using automation, we have attempted to clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
The [code behind `tf.function` API](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/8d72537c6abf5a44103b57b9c2e22c14f5f49698/tensorflow/python/eager/def_function.py#L542) can be made to deadlock when two `tf.function` decorated Python functions are mutually recursive:
```python
import tensorflow as tf
@tf.function()
def fun1(num):
if num == 1:
return
print(num)
fun2(num-1)
@tf.function()
def fun2(num):
if num == 0:
return
print(num)
fun1(num-1)
fun1(9)
```
This occurs due to using a non-reentrant `Lock` Python object.
Loading any model which contains mutually recursive functions is vulnerable. An attacker can cause denial of service by causing users to load such models and calling a recursive `tf.function`, although this is not a frequent scenario.
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.7.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.6.1, TensorFlow 2.5.2, and TensorFlow 2.4.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
