raven667 said pretty much what I think.
Linux may be somewhat secure if one limits it to simple routing and firewall-related tasks. It's certainly not secure if one decides to use it, for example, to host world-accessible NFS shares or try to contain malicious local users.
And by this point in time, it can't really be fixed short of rewriting it in a safe language.
