The png_err function in pngerror.c in libpng 1.0.x before 1.0.55, 1.2.x
before 1.2.45, 1.4.x before 1.4.8, and 1.5.x before 1.5.4 makes a function
call using a NULL pointer argument instead of an empty-string argument,
which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application
crash) via a crafted PNG image.
