Bug 1027777

Ref: http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2017/q1/548
=============================================
Description:
podofo is a C++ library to work with the PDF file format.

A fuzz on it discovered a null pointer dereference. The upstream project denies me to open a new ticket. So, I just 
will forward this on the -users mailing list.

The complete ASan output:

# podofocolor dummy $FILE foo
