Description:
------------
Hi,

In /sapi/litespeed/lsapilib.c:


3114        pw = getpwnam( "nobody" );


is not checked against NULL, as it is everywhere else.

This may cause a null pointer dereference.

Please talk to me next time when (or even better, before) committing patches to 5.4. Otherwise they may be missed when upmerging and packaging the release.
