I would recommend you first try to create a complete reproducible 
example (the code below is just a snippet). Then try to minimize it - 
make it do as little as possible but still trigger the bug. Then try to 
reduce the number of packages used. If you ended up with code that used 
only base R (no packages outside R distribution), then submit again to 
R-devel (it is a likely bug in R itself, so if you can't trace the bug 
down yourself, someone here would do it). Base R would not let any user 
code write beyond the end of the string, so if you can reproduce this in 
base R, it is definitely a bug.

If you end up with code that still uses some contributed packages from 
these below, you need to find out/guess which of them is responsible and 
try to ask for help the maintainer of that package. It would more likely 
be a bug in some of those packages, but in principle it could also be a 
problem in how you are using them.

If you haven't done that already, it may be useful to update your 
packages - just in case the problem has already been resolved.
