This is actually a buffer overflow.  Ok with that change.

I am not sure what you mean by that.

The (stack) allocated buffer is large enough, so technically there is no
buffer overflow here (at least not in the sense that "allocated buffer was
too small"). But the stack is not large enough to hold the buffer of that
size.

Is it?  The condition is about the limit of the buffer being written,
and about overflow missing the limit.

Oops, I mixed up this patch with the other overflow (BZ 20419).
You are absolutely right. Will retest and commit shortly.

Thanks,
