Potentially worth pointing out that Go is memory safe only when single threaded (races can corrupt memory), and this kind of application is very likely to use multiple threads.

But I do also generally expect it to be safer than C++. The race detector prevents a lot of badness quite effectively because it's so widely used.

Go is safe from the perspective of RCEs due to buffer overflow, which is what matters here. Happy to be enlightened otherwise, but "I broke your (poorly implemented, non-idiomatic, please use locks or channels ffs) state machine" is a lot better than "I am the return instruction pointer now"
