The insecure parts of Linux is mostly on the DE side opposed to the core OS part that servers use. We absolutely will see more vulnerabilities in the future as Linux grows.

What vulnerabilities are you talking about? Linux is pretty solid especially with wayland and flatpaks.

Throw in some other tools like mandatory access controls and you are set

Many developments over the last few years have been for improving those aspects, e.g. Wayland is far more secure than X11 could ever be. There will be more vulnerabilities found, but it won't be as bad as one might fear.

Flatpak too, they could force more filesystem restrictions tho, line Android apps
