Libsoup: null pointer deference on libsoup via /auth/soup-auth-digest.c through "soup_auth_digest_authenticate" on client when server omits the "realm" parameter in an unauthorized response with digest authentication

A flaw was found in libsoup, where soup_auth_digest_authenticate() is vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference. This issue may cause the libsoup client to crash.
