Security Updates -- Are they necessary in Linux for user?

Dear friends:
After installing Fedora and rebooting, I found myself facing the task of
installing 213 security updates with Update Manager. It took nearly 2
hours to download and install them. Since I am the only one using my
Linux OS (as a user, of course), why do I need to worry about security.
Am I not protected by the root/user system. What's your opinion? Please
advise.
Thank you.
Benjamin
