You do the checks yourself.
Even the most well-checked projects have had bugs with buffer
overflows.
Topical News: <http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/25831/discuss>
OpenSSL is prone to an off-by-one buffer-overflow
vulnerability because the library fails to properly bounds-check
user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized
memory buffer.
but the real irony is at the bottom of the announcement:
NOTE: This issue was introduced in the fix for the
vulnerability described in BID 20249 (OpenSSL SSL_Get_Shared_Ciphers
Buffer Overflow Vulnerability).
That's gotta hurt.
