Root CA certificates live in the package ca-certificates. It is very rarely updated. Updating this package does not require a reboot. Note that Firefox uses its own certificate store.

Will the root CA list become outdated if I never restart/upgrade the OS? Or does Ubuntu periodically update the root CA list in the background automatically (without restart/upgrade)?

Pablo Bianchi over 4 yearsNo, you have to
sudo update-ca-certificates -v -f. Chromium/Chrome also uses its own certificates store. Here is a related question.
