You may be trying to rotobrush the entire clip instead of the trimmed clip in the comp that Premiere Pro created. Without workflow details and screenshots we have no idea what is going on. This is not a bug in any of the releases of After Effects that I know of. There are others, but not finding the end of a clip isn't one of them.

Taking screenshots with the modified properties of the problem layers revealed are the easiest way. Reveal them by selecting the layers and pressing the 'u' key twice. Windows and Mac both have very quick keyboard shortcuts for taking a screenshot of the entire screen. Then you can simply browse to the image, copy it, and paste it to the reply field on the forum or use the toolbar, or drag it into the reply field. A screenshot of the Layer Panel showing Rotobrush and the Effects Control Panel will also help.
