Proof of concept

Hi, 

There is a null pointer dereference bug in the function getRow
(CairoOutputDev.cc:3122). At the line 3130 the variable pix can get a NULL
value returned by imgStr->getLine();

3122   void getRow(int row_num, uint32_t *row_data) override {
3123     int i;
3124     Guchar *pix;
3125 
3126     if (row_num <= current_row)
3127       return;
3128 
3129     while (current_row  < row_num) {
3130       pix = imgStr->getLine();
3131       current_row++;
3132     }
3133 
3134     if (unlikely(pix == NULL)) {
3135       memset(row_data, 0, width*4);
3136       if (!imageError) {
3137         error(errInternal, -1, "Bad image stream");
3138         imageError = gTrue;
3139       }


This scenario (pix == NULL) is checked later at the line 3134. But the
execution isn't stopped so the lines 3160 are reached with pix holding a NULL
pointer.

3156     if (maskColors) {
3157       for (int x = 0; x < width; x++) {
3158         bool is_opaque = false;
3159         for (int i = 0; i < colorMap->getNumPixelComps(); ++i) {
3160           if (pix[i] < maskColors[2*i] ||
3161               pix[i] > maskColors[2*i+1]) {
3162             is_opaque = true;
3163             break;
3164           }
3165         }

A solution could be exiting the function after the error is detected at 3138.

PoC is attached.
