All tools and all languages rely on people not making mistakes to produce a working product. C/C++ just has a set of user created problems that can be particularly nasty to solve or deal with.

The degree of this reliance varies greatly, and its better to choose tools that minimise or eliminate this. We can now do better then C, so let's kill it. Btw. just today OpenSSH got another buffer overflow found. One that exposes private keys.
