Access to invalid memory during shape inference in `Cudnn*` ops
CVE-2021-41221
Description
TensorFlow is an open source platform for machine learning. In affected versions the shape inference code for the Cudnn* operations in TensorFlow can be tricked into accessing invalid memory, via a heap buffer overflow. This occurs because the ranks of the input, input_h and input_c parameters are not validated, but code assumes they have certain values. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.7.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.6.1, TensorFlow 2.5.2, and TensorFlow 2.4.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
