[BUG?] Taking picture with flash causes shutdown in cold temps

I tried to take a picture with flash the ambient temperature being around -10°C. As a result the phone shut down immediately after the flash fired. I turned the device back on and repeated trying to take a picture. The phone shut down again exactly as before. Battery was 29% after the second boot. Neither of the pictures were saved.

I have not yet tried to reproduce this later. I am not sure if this has nothing to do with the temperature, it is simply the only explanation I came up with. Otherwise I've had no problems with the camera and no sudden shutdowns. Anyone experiencing similar problems?

EDIT1: According to comments this seems to be battery charge state/voltage related rather than just operating temperature. Edited title and tags accordingly.
