  • Buffer Overflows in Notepad++
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 Aug 2023
    I'm very fond of Notepad2, but development ceased in 2012 and the fork that I'm using, Notepad2-mod [1], had its last release in 2017. I wonder how many buffer overflows are lurking in there.

    I just discovered Notepad3 [2], which appears to be a maintained fork. Screenshots look very similar to Notepad2. Gotta check it out later.

    Any other forks that I should be aware of?
