TensorFlow vulnerable to `CHECK` failure in `AvgPoolOp`

### Impact The [`AvgPoolOp`](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/8d72537c6abf5a44103b57b9c2e22c14f5f49698/tensorflow/core/kernels/avgpooling_op.cc#L56-L98) function takes an argument `ksize` that must be positive but is not checked. A negative `ksize` can trigger a `CHECK` failure and crash the program. ```python import tensorflow as tf import numpy as np value = np.ones([1, 1, 1, 1]) ksize = [1, 1e20, 1, 1] strides = [1, 1, 1, 1] padding = 'SAME' data_format = 'NHWC' tf.raw_ops.AvgPool(value=value, ksize=ksize, strides=strides, padding=padding, data_format=data_format) ``` ### Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [3a6ac52664c6c095aa2b114e742b0aa17fdce78f](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/3a6ac52664c6c095aa2b114e742b0aa17fdce78f). The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.10.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.9.1, TensorFlow 2.8.1, and TensorFlow 2.7.2, as these are also affected and still in supported range. ### For more information Please consult [our security guide](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/SECURITY.md) for more information regarding the security model and how to contact us with issues and questions. ### Attribution This vulnerability has been reported by Jingyi Shi.
