CVE-2022-41897
`FractionalMaxPoolGrad` Heap out of bounds read in Tensorflow
TensorFlow is an open source platform for machine learning. If FractionMaxPoolGrad is given outsize inputs row_pooling_sequence and col_pooling_sequence, TensorFlow will crash. We have patched the issue in GitHub commit d71090c3e5ca325bdf4b02eb236cfb3ee823e927. The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.11. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.10.1, 2.9.3, and TensorFlow 2.8.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
