Missing validation causes denial of service via `UnsortedSegmentJoin`
Impact
The implementation of tf.raw_ops.UnsortedSegmentJoin does not fully validate the input arguments. This results in a CHECK-failure which can be used to trigger a denial of service attack:
import tensorflow as tf
tf.raw_ops.UnsortedSegmentJoin(
inputs=tf.constant("this", shape=[12], dtype=tf.string),
segment_ids=tf.constant(0, shape=[12], dtype=tf.int64),
num_segments=tf.constant(0, shape=[12], dtype=tf.int64))
The code assumes num_segments is a scalar but there is no validation for this before accessing its value:
const Tensor& num_segments_tensor = context->input(2);
OP_REQUIRES(context, num_segments_tensor.NumElements() != 0,
errors::InvalidArgument("Number of segments cannot be empty."));
auto num_segments = num_segments_tensor.scalar<NUM_SEGMENTS_TYPE>()();
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 13d38a07ce9143e044aa737cfd7bb759d0e9b400.
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.
