Vendoring is terrible for security.
Distribution maintainers, developers and system engineers have to either unvendorize everything or go through all vendorized dependencies every time a vulnerability comes out and patch them.
Most live systems cannot receive a full upgrade every time a patch is published.
Use dynamic linking on languages that support it and don't vendorize things.
