obviously not. There are still question:
1.) what may break if we upgrade?
2.) what may break if we don't upgrade?
3.) why should we upgrade if nothing's broken and we risk 1.) ?

The mob I work for's (enterprise) clients tend to send me queries every time an OpenSSL or other CVE comes out, "How long will it take to apply the fix?", "When will you have a new release ready?", "Does it affect the product(s)?", usually in that order.

And yes, we all know about the problem of, "How much other testing will have to be done?"

Debian and other distros usually fix security bugs by backporting security fix

provided SW version.
