Description

Impact

When the boxes argument of tf.image.crop_and_resize has a very large value, the CPU kernel implementation receives it as a C++ nan floating point value. Attempting to operate on this is undefined behavior which later produces a segmentation fault.

Patches

We have patched the issue in c0319231333f0f16e1cc75ec83660b01fedd4182 and will release TensorFlow 2.4.0 containing the patch. TensorFlow nightly packages after this commit will also have the issue resolved.
