Is laravel 4.2 safe?

Guys I've been struggling the past few days to upgrade my project from L4.2 to 5.0, but it came in my mind what's the point from upgrading the project to L5? All I care about is the security risks, so since my project is working very well with L4.2 is there is any risks or is it okay ?

thanks
