Tor before 0.2.8.9 and 0.2.9.x before 0.2.9.4-alpha had internal functions
that were entitled to expect that buf_t data had NUL termination, but the
implementation of or/buffers.c did not ensure that NUL termination was
present, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(client, hidden service, relay, or authority crash) via crafted data.
