Integer overflow in Tensorflow
Impact
The [implementation of OpLevelCostEstimator::CalculateOutputSize](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/a1320ec1eac186da1d03f033109191f715b2b130/tensorflow/core/grappler/costs/op_level_cost_estimator.cc#L1598-L1617) is vulnerable to an integer overflow if an attacker can create an operation which would involve tensors with large enough number of elements:
```cc
for (const auto& dim : output_shape.dim()) {
output_size *= dim.size();
}
`
Here, we can have a large enough number of dimensions in output_shape.dim() or just a small number of dimensions being large enough to cause an overflow in the multiplication.
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [b9bd6cfd1c50e6807846af9a86f9b83cafc9c8ae](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/b9bd6cfd1c50e6807846af9a86f9b83cafc9c8ae).
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.7.1, TensorFlow 2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
