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 implem

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 implementation of tf.raw_ops.UnsortedSegmentJoin does not fully validate the input arguments. This results in a CHECK-failure which can be used to trigger a denial of service attack.

The code assumes num_segments is a positive scalar but there is no validation. Since this value is used to allocate the output tensor, a negative value would result in a CHECK-failure (assertion failure), as per TFSA-2021-198. Versions 2.9.0, 2.8.1, 2.7.2, and 2.6.4 contain a patch for this issue.
