Can this be in the stack in unaligned location? Maybe some alignas should be used?
Here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winnt/ns-winnt-sid I understand that AllocateAndInitializeSid would be needed.

Here used CreateWellKnownSid() and I see no requirements for sid alignment.
Also, looking for usage samples one can see that its uses either LocalAlloc() or stack allocation.
Also, I see no notes about alignment of allocated by LocalAlloc() memory.
Anyway, I'll add alignas(SID) to be sure.
