AVID-2026-R1036
Description
Incomplete validation in signal ops leads to crashes in TensorFlow (CVE-2022-29213)
Details
TensorFlow is an open source platform for machine learning. Prior to versions 2.9.0, 2.8.1, 2.7.2, and 2.6.4, the tf.compat.v1.signal.rfft2d and tf.compat.v1.signal.rfft3d lack input validation and under certain condition can result in crashes (due to CHECK-failures). Versions 2.9.0, 2.8.1, 2.7.2, and 2.6.4 contain a patch for this issue.
Reason for inclusion in AVID: CVE-2022-29213 describes an input validation flaw in TensorFlow signal operations that may cause crashes (potential DoS). It is a vulnerability in a widely used AI software library and affects components used to build/run AI systems, representing a software supply-chain vulnerability in AI stacks.
