Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos started a new discussion on lib/pkcs11.c:

>  		len = p11_kit_space_strlen(str, str_max);

> -		*output_size = len + 1;

Nice catch. Indeed this is incorrect behavior as an application will not be able to allocate the right amount of data. It is "breaking" the ABI, but according to debian code search this function is not yet used. So the risk of fixing this issue is quite low.
