Submit #567110: HOTEL_MANAGEMENT_SYSTEM stack overflow in edit function v1.0 Buffer Overflowinfo

TitleHOTEL_MANAGEMENT_SYSTEM stack overflow in edit function v1.0 Buffer Overflow
DescriptionThe `edit()` function contains **two critical buffer overflow vulnerabilities** due to unsafe usage of: 1. `scanf("%[^\n]", roomnumber)` (no length restriction) 2. `gets(s.roomnumber)` (deprecated and highly unsafe) An attacker can exploit these to **overwrite adjacent memory**, leading to **arbitrary code execution (RCE)** or **program crash (DoS)**.
