Division by zero in `Conv2DBackpropFilter`

### Impact An attacker can cause a division by zero to occur in `Conv2DBackpropFilter`: ```python import tensorflow as tf input_tensor = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 0, 0, 0], dtype=tf.float32) filter_sizes = tf.constant([0, 0, 0, 0], shape=[4], dtype=tf.int32) out_backprop = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 0, 0, 0], dtype=tf.float32) tf.raw_ops.Conv2DBackpropFilter( input=input_tensor, filter_sizes=filter_sizes, out_backprop=out_backprop, strides=[1, 1, 1, 1], use_cudnn_on_gpu=False, padding='SAME', explicit_paddings=[], data_format='NHWC', dilations=[1, 1, 1, 1] ) ``` This is because the [implementation](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/1b0296c3b8dd9bd948f924aa8cd62f87dbb7c3da/tensorflow/core/kernels/conv_grad_filter_ops.cc#L513-L522) computes a divisor based on user provided data (i.e., the shape of the tensors given as arguments): ```cc const size_t size_A = output_image_size * filter_total_size; const size_t size_B = output_image_size * dims.out_depth; const size_t size_C = filter_total_size * dims.out_depth; const size_t work_unit_size = size_A + size_B + size_C; const size_t shard_size = (target_working_set_size + work_unit_size - 1) / work_unit_size; ``` If all shapes are empty then `work_unit_size` is 0. Since there is no check for this case before division, this results in a runtime exception, with potential to be abused for a denial of service. ### Patches We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [c570e2ecfc822941335ad48f6e10df4e21f11c96](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/c570e2ecfc822941335ad48f6e10df4e21f11c96). The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2, TensorFlow 2.3.3, TensorFlow 2.2.3 and TensorFlow 2.1.4, as these are also affected and still in supported range. ### For more information Please consult [our security guide](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/SECURITY.md) for more information regarding the security model and how to contact us with issues and questions. ### Attribution This vulnerability has been reported by Yakun Zhang and Ying Wang of Baidu X-Team.
