CWE	CWE-676: Use of Potentially Dangerous Function
Confidence Level	Low
Impact Level	High
Likelihood Level	Low

Description

Using 'scanf()' to read input can easily lead to buffer overflows because it doesn't limit how much data is read into a buffer. This makes your code unsafe, especially when handling user input.

Impact

If exploited, an attacker could provide input that overflows the buffer, potentially allowing them to crash the program, corrupt memory, or execute malicious code. This can lead to serious security breaches, including system compromise or data leaks.
