CVE-2022-29213
Python vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

TensorFlow, an open source platform for machine learning, disclosed a vulnerability (CVE-2022-29213) affecting versions prior to 2.9.0, 2.8.1, 2.7.2, and 2.6.4. The vulnerability was discovered in the tf.compat.v1.signal.rfft2d and tf.compat.v1.signal.rfft3d functions which lacked proper input validation (GitHub Advisory).

Technical details

The vulnerability stems from missing input validation in the signal operations tf.compat.v1.signal.rfft2d and tf.compat.v1.signal.rfft3d. Under certain conditions, this could result in crashes due to CHECK-failures. The issue was particularly triggered when these functions were called with invalid input parameters, such as negative values in the fft_length parameter (GitHub Issue).

Impact

When exploited, this vulnerability could cause the application to crash, resulting in a denial of service condition. The severity of this vulnerability has been rated as Low (GitHub Advisory).

Mitigation and workarounds

The vulnerability has been patched in TensorFlow versions 2.9.0, 2.8.1, 2.7.2, and 2.6.4. Users are advised to upgrade to these or later versions. The fix includes additional input validation checks to prevent crashes (TF Release, GitHub PR).
