Segfault in `QuantizedMatMul` in TensorFlow
CVE-2022-35973
Description
TensorFlow is an open source platform for machine learning. If QuantizedMatMul is given nonscalar input for: min_a, max_a, min_b, or max_b It gives a segfault that can be used to trigger a denial of service attack. We have patched the issue in GitHub commit aca766ac7693bf29ed0df55ad6bfcc78f35e7f48. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.10.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.9.1, TensorFlow 2.8.1, and TensorFlow 2.7.2, as these are also affected and still in supported range. There are no known workarounds for this issue.
