If you care about security, then update it.

Thanks of course I care about security but do I need to look and make sure it will not break any thing on an existing server with a couple of sites?

For security reason, you should install the update but be sure to do a backup first before installing it. Some updates can cause issues to a website so that's why a backup is very important.
