Plugins are not dead; they are still being updated albeit some of them very poorly.
They are indeed dead. What you are seeing is the dying quivers…

What are the risks with not updating and the security vulnerabilities thing?
As with any software, if a vulnerability is discovered, it will be exploitable until updated.
Also, new features (if any) will not be available.
The dangers of the exploit specifically though?
Hackers can easily target? Gain control of NAS? Just the jail and contents?
ISP is exposed?
If your instance is just accessible on your LAN then there is probably not much to worry about.
