    Wrangling Untrusted File Formats Safely

    There are efforts to do that, notably https://github.com/google/wuffs

    RLBox is another interesting option that lets you sandbox C/C++ code.

    I think the main reason is that security is one of those things that people don't care about until it is too late to change. They get to the point of having a fast PDF library in C++ that has all the features. Then they realise that they should have written it in a safer language but by that point it means a complete rewrite.

    The same reason not enough people use Bazel. By the time most people realise they need it, you've already implemented a huge build system using Make or whatever.
