commit 20e731f423a438f53738de73af9ef3d67c4cba2f Author: Peter Jones Date: Tue Feb 12 18:04:49 2019 -0500 VLogError(): Avoid NULL pointer dereferences in (V)Sprint calls VLogError() calculates the size of format strings by using calls to SPrint and VSPrint with a StrSize of 0 and NULL for an output buffer. Unfortunately, this is an incorrect usage of (V)Sprint. A StrSize of "0" is special-cased to mean "there is no limit". So, we end up writing our string to address 0x0. This was discovered because it causes a crash on ARM where, unlike x86, it does not necessarily have memory mapped at 0x0. Avoid the (V)Sprint calls altogether by using (V)PoolPrint, which handles the size calculation and allocation for us.
