Have you read of a text that can shut down the Iphone. Not sure I'd refer to Imessage as secure!
But that has nothing to do with the security of the message.
From an AppleInsider article
iOS cannot correctly render [a specific] block of unicode characters in question. When the text string is sent from one iPhone to another, it sets off a cascade of processing errors that eat up memory and ultimately crashes Messages. In some cases Springboard also crashes, triggering an iPhone reboot sequence.
