--- Comment #1 from Brent Fulgham <bfulgham at webkit.org> ---
This is due to a null-pointer dereference in WebPage::performActionOnElement.

In this test case, the HTMLImageElement's renderer does not have a valid cached image. We ask the nullptr for its URL, and the process crashes.

This could be avoided by a nullptr check, but the method we pass the URL to doesn't even use it! So we can avoid the whole issue by simply passing a default URL that can be just as easily ignored as a fully-formed URL (at less cost!).
