FTR,

This issue won't get a CVE.  This is the reply I got from cve-assign@
after I filled the new horrible web form:

> As far as we can tell, an end user experiences a loss of functionality
> after the podofopdfinfo command-line tool crashes with a NULL pointer
> dereference (because the end user can completely work around this by
> not repeating the specific command-line invocation, there would be no
> security impact).
> 
> Although some parts of PoDoFo are library code that could be reached
> from an arbitrary application, the reported code in
> PdfInfo::GuessFormat appears to be reachable only from the
> podofopdfinfo command-line tool.
