Hi, please recommend a safe CPU tress testing software .
In what way do you mean "safe"? Any stress test should work the CPU hard enough that it will be potentially unsafe for it if the CPU and system is set up in a way that disables it's built-in protections. This is true even of Cinebench.

Cinebench is a CPU benchmark but as a stress test it's about as "real-world" as you're likely to get since it's rendering an actual image using a production application, Cinema4D by Maxon. That makes it a decent real-world test for CPU stability and cooling. But if in the process of running it for 30 min's (an hour, all night, whatever) your cooling proves inadequate and your setup doesn't allow the CPU to throttle itself at a safe...
