After having worked on software security for 20yrs+ I can tell you first hand that it is a long-term losing game. Libs, frameworks, and SDKs are written to provide functionality and interop. The more functionality/interop they have then the more popular they become and the more vulns they have.

The only winning move is not to code!

....OR learn to live in a state of constant vulns and put guardrails in place so that you can avoid shooting yourself in the foot as much as possible. In this case strict ngress/egress firewall rules in prod would prevent this from ever being exploited from what I've read on the vuln thus far.
