If it’s open source, anyone can poke around in the code and find vulnerabilities to
exploit way easierpatch
FTFY. Open source software is more secure than closed source, not less

No, you can’t really make blanket statements like that at all.
Open source doesn’t compromise security on its own and closed source is the same.
Open source might be more secure but that’s only if people actually audit it properly and some closed source codes are audited more closely than some open source code.
