Are you sure that's all that's needed? That buf gets used with:
snprintf(buf, sizeof buf, "%.100s/%.100s", pw->pw_dir,
_PATH_SSH_USER_CONFFILE);
which will also truncate.

We ended up with something similar but with some extra checks for
snprintf return values:

Thanks, this will be in the next release.
