CVE-2021-29576 — Heap buffer overflow in `MaxPool3DGradGrad`

Affected: tensorflow

TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. The implementation of `tf.raw_ops.MaxPool3DGradGrad` is vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow. The implementation(https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/596c05a159b6fbb9e39ca10b3f7753b7244fa1e9/tensorflow/core/kernels/pooling_ops_3d.cc#L694-L696) does not check that the initialization of `Pool3dParameters` completes successfully. Since the constructor(https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/596c05a159b6fbb9e39ca10b3f7753b7244fa1e9/tensorflow/core/kernels/pooling_ops_3d.cc#L48-L88) uses `OP_REQUIRES` to validate conditions, the first assertion that fails interrupts the initialization of `params`, making it contain invalid data. In turn, this might cause a heap buffer overflow, depending on default initialized values. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.

Affected: PyPI: tensorflow, PyPI: tensorflow-cpu, PyPI: tensorflow-gpu

### Impact The implementation of `tf.raw_ops.MaxPool3DGradGrad` is vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow:

```python import tensorflow as tf

values = [0.01] * 11 orig_input = tf.constant(values, shape=[11, 1, 1, 1, 1], dtype=tf.float32) orig_output = tf.constant([0.01], shape=[1, 1, 1, 1, 1], dtype=tf.float32) grad = tf.constant([0.01], shape=[1, 1, 1, 1, 1], dtype=tf.float32) ksize = [1, 1, 1, 1, 1] strides = [1, 1, 1, 1, 1] padding = "SAME"

tf.raw_ops.MaxPool3DGradGrad( orig_input=orig_input, orig_output=orig_output, grad=grad, ksize=ksize, strides=strides, padding=padding) ```

The [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/596c05a159b6fbb9e39ca10b3f7753b7244fa1e9/tensorflow/core/kernels/pooling_ops_3d.cc#L694-L696) does not check that the initialization of `Pool3dParameters` completes successfully:

```cc Pool3dParameters params{context, ksize_, stride_, padding_, data_format_, tensor_in.shape()}; ```

Since [the constructor](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/596c05a159b6fbb9e39ca10b3f7753b7244fa1e9/tensorflow/core/kernels/pooling_ops_3d.cc#L48-L88) uses `OP_REQUIRES` to validate conditions, the first assertion that fails interrupts the initialization of `params`, making it contain invalid data. In turn, this might cause a heap buffer overflow, depending on default initialized values.

### Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [63c6a29d0f2d692b247f7bf81f8732d6442fad09](https://github.co…
