Division by zero in TFLite's implementation of `SpaceToDepth`

Overview

Impact

The Prepare step of the SpaceToDepth TFLite operator does not check for 0 before division.

const int block_size = params->block_size;
const int input_height = input->dims->data[1];
const int input_width = input->dims->data[2];
int output_height = input_height / block_size;
int output_width = input_width / block_size;

An attacker can craft a model such that params->block_size would be zero.

Patches

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 0d45ea1ca641b21b73bcf9c00e0179cda284e7e7.

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.
