I think it depends on what you use it for. I have yet to see a MacOS "exploit" that didn't require the end user do something they ought not to do, and/or authenticate an action they didn't initiate. And by exploit, I mean access the OS via network protocol and bypass protections in place to prevent it without user action or intervention.
