Game was called a win for black but black had insufficient mating material



Time ran out for me(white) but black had insufficient mating material

This is a bug, no?
Black has mating material. You can promote one of your pawns to a knight then (still) a mate is possible.
It is that you've lost on time. Sufficient material doesn't mean victory, you have to execute mate by the time. However, Black could have hold a draw in this position. Your mistake earned him half point more.
