CVE-2022-29202 — Denial of service in TensorFlow due to lack of validation in `tf.ragged.constant`

Affected: tensorflow

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.ragged.constant` does not fully validate the input arguments. This results in a denial of service by consuming all available memory. Versions 2.9.0, 2.8.1, 2.7.2, and 2.6.4 contain a patch for this issue.

GHSA-cwpm-f78v-7m5c — Denial of service in `tf.ragged.constant` due to lack of validation

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

### Impact The implementation of [`tf.ragged.constant`](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/f3b9bf4c3c0597563b289c0512e98d4ce81f886e/tensorflow/python/ops/ragged/ragged_factory_ops.py#L146-L239) does not fully validate the input arguments. This results in a denial of service by consuming all available memory:

```python import tensorflow as tf tf.ragged.constant(pylist=[],ragged_rank=8968073515812833920) ``` ### Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [bd4d5583ff9c8df26d47a23e508208844297310e](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/bd4d5583ff9c8df26d47a23e508208844297310e).

The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.9.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.8.1, TensorFlow 2.7.2, and TensorFlow 2.6.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
