Default Cracks in manifold

While working on the car, just found a couple cracks in the welds on my manifold. One picture shows a crack from the top, the other is from the bottom. I am not sure how bad the cracks are but I guess I can assume they will get worse. This manifold is about 3-4 years old.

Questions: Should I be worried about these getting worse? Is it safe to reweld them, or am I looking at needing a new manifold?

The cracks can get worst due to heat. Most likey you can reweld it or if funds are good you can just get a new manifold
