Of course, but memory unsafety is one of the biggest enabler for security vulnerabilities. Attackers have shifted to other concerns when PHP became widespread enough for example, but PHP alone cannot be used to create a vulnerability common in C/C++ because of its memory safety (which is not even that good!), you need some other systems to combine multiple issues into a single coherent attack, and it's likely that C/C++'s memory unsafety has played a great role somewhere in between. He doesn't fully acknowledge this multiplicative aspect of memory (un)safety.
