While the sample crashes on a memory read operation in AddressSanitizer, an out-of-bounds "write" takes place subsequently in the same method, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow condition.

The crash was reported at https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=551460. Attached is the PDF file which triggers the crash.
