gets is indeed insecure. It does not perform bounds checking so it can easily cause buffer overflows:

Charan LEo25 please remove 25 and C# from tags and add tags like gets, input
Or is it really related to 25 and c#?

Answer 5

Sombre just btw. gets has been officially deprecated since 1999 and was even removed in later C++ standards. There are better and more secure alternatives, gets literally just exists for backwards comparability with old C code.
