 This warning indicates that the code doesn't provide enough arguments to match a format string and one of the missing arguments is an integer.
 
-This defect is likely to cause incorrect output and, in more dangerous cases, can lead to stack overflow.
+Providing too few arguments to a format function leads to undefined behavior because the function attempts to read values that aren't passed. Possible consequences include incorrect output, crashes, or even security vulnerabilities such as information leaks.
+
+To ensure stability and safety, always match the number and types of arguments to the format specifiers in the string.
 
 Code analysis name: `MISSING_INTEGER_ARGUMENT_TO_FORMAT_FUNCTION`
 
 ## Example
 
-The following code generates this warning because it uses an incorrect number of arguments in the call to `sprintf_s` and the missing argument is an integer. If the unsafe function `sprintf` was used instead of the safer variant `sprintf_s`, this code would likely cause a stack overflow instead of just an unexpected output:
