Unfortunately, that's not fixable but a result of the too small gamut of 
the sRGB working space.
Combining the lightness of #2a7e23 with hue/saturation of #11e500 
results in (linear) sRGB values which are negative for red and blue. 
Clipping those to 0-255 yields the result you observed (the color 
becomes lighter than it should be).

Whenever you observe this misbehavior, at least one of the resulting RGB 
components should be at 0 or 255 -- otherwise it really would be a bug.

The only fix is to use a larger working space, like scRGB.
