To reproduce this issue, please save the forms below in the file
duplicate_cursor.el, and then open the file in Emacs with:

    $ emacs -Q duplicate_cursor.el

Next, evaluate the forms in the file with:

    M-x eval-buffer RET

The function `duplicate-cursor' is now defined. Invoke this function
with:

    M-x duplicate-cursor RET

A new buffer called duplicated-cursor is now selected. So far,
everything works as intended, and a single cursor is shown in the
penultimate line of the window, as expected, at the position of point.

Now the issue: Invoke `duplicate-cursor' again, i.e., please do again:

    M-x duplicate-cursor RET

Unexpectedly, two cursors now appear in the buffer duplicated-cursor:
One, as before, in the penultimate line of the window, and a second
cursor in the last line of the window. This second cursor is unexpected
and does not appear at the position of point, but one line below it.

If I then press C-p, a cursor is shown in the antepenultimate line of
the window. This works as expected. However, a second cursor is again
unexpectedly shown in the last line of the window. This second cursor
is also unexpectedly shown when I press C-p repeatedly from then on.

The expected situation in all cases above is that only a single cursor
is shown at all times, located at the position of point.

Please find below the forms I used to elicit this issue. Alternatively,
you can download duplicate_cursor.el from:

    https://www.metalevel.at/ei/duplicate_cursor.el

Can you reproduce the issue with this information? Please let me know if
anything else is needed.

Thank you and all the best,
Markus
