No, the function is inconsistent in its use of the len parameter. In the case
of a non-hex string and a user provided buffer, it passes len to a function
that expects it to be a buffer size.Thus, adding one line before the read will
fix your problem:

        len = sizeof(value);

You are lost in a twisty maze of little standards, all different.
