Not all security fixes are backported so unfortunately if you’re concerned about vulnerabilities, updating to the current release OS is a requirement.

On the other hand, not all new security vulnerabilities are backported either.

Do you think that new major OS versions introduce only fixes and not bugs?

I think version N-1 is a good balance between getting the fixes and avoiding the new bugs.
