Software that doesn't change neither gets safer nor becomes more vulnerable - it stays the same. It's really a simple concept.
Yes, simple. And irrelevant. Here is what's relevant: software that doesn't change remains vulnerable forever. Because nobody is fixing any exploits that are discovered.
Yes, hackers could keep investing more time trying to uncover new exploits in the old code, but im pretty sure after what, 10 years, all the low-hanging fruit has already been exploited.
Wishful thinking will not protect you. Running an actively-maintained system is a better option.
