What is CVE-2022-35934?
CVE-2022-35934 is a medium-severity denial of service vulnerability in Google Tensorflow, published on 16 Sep 2022. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Official description
TensorFlow is an open source platform for machine learning. The implementation of tf.reshape op in TensorFlow is vulnerable to a denial of service via CHECK-failure (assertion failure) caused by overflowing the number of elements in a tensor. This issue has been patched in GitHub commit 61f0f9b94df8c0411f0ad0ecc2fec2d3f3c33555. 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.
Weakness: CWE-617

How do I fix CVE-2022-35934?
Upgrade tensorflow to a fixed version for your release line: 2.7.2, 2.8.1 or 2.9.1.
Upgrade, then put limits on request size, rate and nesting depth so one client cannot exhaust the service. More about Denial of service.
