Unfortunately web apps can never be secured . There would be some
vulnerability popping up . I think this is not the case of wordpress
alone .
<assumption>
WP has a huge customer base hence will have lot of bugs .. may be the
user vs contributor ratio plays a major role for
testing,reporting,designing and developing the WP .
</assumption>

PHP does that :(
Well it was created to be a "Personal Home Page"  and the first
versions were so simple to use that it gained huge popularity .
But its always up to developers to write clean code .

I would like to know the issues you faced with it . Did you file a bug report ?
Anyways maybe a different thread in this mailing list would be fine .
