Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions TensorFlow versions prior to 2.10.0 TensorFlow versions 2.9.1 and earlier TensorFlow versions 2.8.1 and earlier TensorFlow versions 2.7.2 and earlier

Description The implementation of AvgPoolGrad does not fully validate the input orig input shape. This results in a CHECK failure which can be used to trigger a denial of service attack.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.10.0, update to TensorFlow 2.10.0 or later. For versions 2.9.1 and earlier, update to TensorFlow 2.9.1 or later. For versions 2.8.1 and earlier, update to TensorFlow 2.8.1 or later. For versions 2.7.2 and earlier, update to TensorFlow 2.7.2 or later. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the AvgPoolGrad function until a patch is available.
