A bug for the triage/patching of CVE-2022-37290.

In get_basename() and g_file_get_basename(), when the file name cannot
be parsed, NULL is returned; Nautilus does not check this and this
results in a NPD and a crash.

The issue on GNOME GitLab explains this pretty well:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/2376

And the code in question is also in Nemo and Caja.

History of the code: The faulty code was introduced in Nautilus 2.20,
before Nemo and Caja were forked; these file managers have the same
issue and same code in the function.

The simplest POC I found was running this via DBus, which I'm not 100%
sure if I've altered correctly for Nemo and Caja, but regardless for
Nautilus this results in a crash.
