Description

Impact The implementation of `tf.raw_ops.TensorSummaryV2` does not fully validate the input arguments. This results in a `CHECK`-failure which can be used to trigger a denial of service attack: ```python import numpy as np import tensorflow as tf tf.raw_ops.TensorSummaryV2( tag=np.array('test'), tensor=np.array(3), serialized_summary_metadata=tf.io.encode_base64(np.empty((0)))) ``` The code assumes `axis` is a scalar but there is no validation for this. ```cc const Tensor& serialized_summary_metadata_tensor = c->input(2); // ... ParseFromTString(serialized_summary_metadata_tensor.scalar()(), v->mutable_metadata()); ``` Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 290bb05c80c327ed74fae1d089f1001b1e2a4ef7. 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.
