<example>
<p>The first example allocates a buffer of size <code>size</code> and creates a local variable that stores the location that is one byte past the end of the allocation.
This local variable is then dereferenced which results in an out-of-bounds write.
This local variable is then dereferenced, which results in an out-of-bounds write.
The second example subtracts one from the <code>end</code> variable before dereferencing it. This subtraction ensures that the write correctly updates the final byte of the allocation.</p>
