Could you explain cloudflare tunnels are secure. I understand not punching holes through one's firewall and dealing with a residential connection that's often targeted for exploits. However, if one targets the tunnel endpoint to exploit is it more secure even though it's still exposed to the public?

Secure how? You're exposing a port to the Internet, the tunnel doesn't make it more or less secure. If you don't trust the service, don't expose it.
Check out pangolin. You can get all the awesome of cloudflare tunnela without having your traffic sold to dat aggregators. Jims garge on youtube just did a decent video on it.
