Descriptions

TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. In affected versions an attacker can trigger a denial of service via a segmentation fault in `tf.raw_ops.MaxPoolGrad` caused by missing validation. The [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/460e000de3a83278fb00b61a16d161b1964f15f4/tensorflow/core/kernels/maxpooling_op.cc) misses some validation for the `orig_input` and `orig_output` tensors. The fixes for CVE-2021-29579 were incomplete. We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 136b51f10903e044308cf77117c0ed9871350475. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.6.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.5.1, TensorFlow 2.4.3, and TensorFlow 2.3.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.

TensorFlow es una plataforma de código abierto de extremo a extremo para el aprendizaje automático. En las versiones afectadas, un atacante puede desencadenar una denegación de servicio por medio de un fallo de segmentación en "tf.raw_ops.MaxPoolGrad" causada por una falta de comprobación. La [implementación] (https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/460e000de3a83278fb00b61a16d161b1964f15f4/tensorflow/core/kernels/maxpooling_op.cc) pierde alguna comprobación para los tensores "orig_input" y" orig_output". Las correcciones para CVE-2021-29579 estaban incompletas. Hemos solucionado el problema en el commit de GitHub 136b51f10903e044308cf77117c0ed9871350475. La corrección será incluida en TensorFlow versión 2.6.0. También seleccionaremos este commit en TensorFlow versión 2.5.1, TensorFlow versión 2.4.3 y TensorFlow versión 2.3.4, ya que estos también están afectados y aún se encuentran en el rango admitido.
