1) The software in a pacemaker is not a competitive advantage. The hardware and rights to distribute to hospitals are.

2) Open and closed are equally vulnerable. Closed may be even more vulnerable, since security researches have to attack a black box and can't run ordinary code linting tools.

3) Liability after update is a good question, but one which can be (and is) solved with traditional contract agreements. See cpap machines.
