Use after free in `DecodePng` in Tensorflow
CVE-2022-23584
Description
Tensorflow is an Open Source Machine Learning Framework. A malicious user can cause a use after free behavior when decoding PNG images. After png::CommonFreeDecode(&decode) gets called, the values of decode.width and decode.height are in an unspecified state. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.7.1, TensorFlow 2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
