People were finding buffer overflows in zlib when it was more than twice as old as Brotli, and they're still finding bugs in libpng. I don't see any reason to think that Brotli is "de-facto secure" or even mature. If history is an indication it takes decades to shake the buffer overflows out of even a very popular C library.
