Description

Impact The implementation of `tf.histogram_fixed_width` is vulnerable to a crash when the values array contain `NaN` elements: ```python import tensorflow as tf import numpy as np tf.histogram_fixed_width(values=np.nan, value_range=[1,2]) ``` The implementation assumes that all floating point operations are defined and then converts a floating point result to an integer index: ```cc index_to_bin.device(d) = ((values.cwiseMax(value_range(0)) - values.constant(value_range(0))) .template cast() / step) .cwiseMin(nbins_minus_1) .template cast(); ``` If `values` contains `NaN` then the result of the division is still `NaN` and the cast to `int32` would result in a crash. This only occurs on the CPU implementation. Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit e57fd691c7b0fd00ea3bfe43444f30c1969748b5. 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.
