First you have to look at the patch, to see what/where it goes into. Then 
do a locate for that file, or dir..  In this case, it is in

/usr/src/crypto/openssh

Put the patch in there... type patch < buffer46.patch

That's it, then follow the instructions after patching . ...

See man patch to learn about patching.
