I think the issue is more that programming is not as difficult as it used to be, especially with modern day languages which have vast amounts of abstraction. Writing concise, well structured and maintainable code is much more difficult, and requires a lot more time and attention to detail. Without that, security goes out the window, all of that is a prerequisite to thinking about the potential ways your codebase could be exploited, and putting barriers in place to prevent it.
