Most people I know that had security incidents did not have this because of memory safety issues. But it does not matter, even without memory safety issues out of the picture, you would need to update your software and be wary of supply chain attacks.
(Actually, I can't remember a single incident where somebody I knew was directly affected by a memory safety issue)

But memory safety is one of the big ones.
