Hi Steven - Thanks for reporting this bug!

The xfburn code isn't checking the return value of fopen() before using
it. fopen() is failing here, returning NULL, and then NULL is passed as
the stream to fprintf() resulting in the segfault.

I don't see this as being a security issue so I'm going to open this bug
up.
