I'm pretty sure you have not had security updates for it for a while: see

   https://fedoramagazine.org/fedora-23-end-of-life/

so you are running with unpatched bugs since Dec. 2016. Some of these
bugs *might* be remotely exploitable. I would not use such a machine
to e.g. check my bank account from a public place - *I* would not use it
from a private place over WiFi either - maybe over hardwired ethernet
but that would depend on other factors; but different people
tolerate the possibility of such problems differently: you will have
to decide what to do in your case. I hope this information can help
you make an informed decision.
