Every single file available on buffer overflow mentions that strcpy(), etc, but for some reason no one has noticed that 'cin >>' is also a problem. cin is an extremely commonly used function in C++ code, and it ought to be more widely known that the favoured use of it is insecure. Ditto for improper use of an ifstream.
