Comment (by derekpadula):

 You can see the latest security updates here:

 https://wordpress.org/news/category/security/

 6.5.4 is 99.9% as safe as 6.5.5 and 6.6. There were no major security
 updates to prevent exploits or anything you need to be concerned about.
 Just some minor API-related issues that you're most-likely not using. And
 if you are still concerned, then use a free security plugin like
 WordFence.

 I would suggest you change your mentality about WordPress. Aside from
 Jetpack and some other paid plugins, WordPress is free and open-source
 software. That means you have to do most of the work if something goes
 wrong. Even if you are paying for something, stuff still breaks or runs
 into conflicts with other stuff. So you either have to be patient as you
 wait for the developers to fix it, or you'll have to do the work to fix it
 yourself. And given that most of WordPress's developers are volunteers,
 you'll need to wait a long time for help. Until then, you can hire someone
 to fix it or teach yourself how to fix the problem by following guides and
 forums online.

 If you don't like those choices, then you may want to build your site on a
 different platform and pay a retainer fee for maintenance. But I can tell
 you from experience that most of them are even crappier and more
 complicated, or they cost money, and even when you're paying for it, stuff
 breaks. There are agencies and industries built around every platform,
 because every platform sucks. We're still living in the Internet Stone Age
 and trying to make fire by hitting digital rocks together.

 Nevertheless, different people prefer different platforms, so you may want
 to do some research and try a few out.

 It doesn't seem like the developers are jumping on this issue, so those
 are your options.
