puts and gets in gcc compiler




ok, heres a question for all you programmers.

Why are the C functions puts, and gets, so dangerous to use in linux
progrms? Everytime I compile it gives me messages saying it is
dangerous to use. What is it that get and puts does to the program to
make it unstable and cause segmentation faults and dumps the core?
