Because this compatibility the version number of the Redistributable is 14.1x.xx and after you install, the Redistributable VS2015 is updated from 14.0x.xx to VS2017 14.1x.xx (you can still use VC14).

The ASF forgot to mention security vulnerabilities fixed in the initial changelog 2.4.38.

Added now to www.apachelounge.com/Changelog-2.4.html

*) SECURITY: CVE-2018-17199 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_session: mod_session_cookie does not respect expiry time allowinesessions to be reused. [Hank Ibell]

*) SECURITY: CVE-2018-17189 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_http2: fixes a DoS attack vector. By sending slow request bodiesto resources not consuming them, httpd cleanup code occupies a serverthread unnecessarily. This was changed to an immediate stream resetwhich discards all stream state and incoming data. [Stefan Eissing]

*) SECURITY: CVE-2019-0190 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_ssl: Fix infinite loop triggered by a client-initiated

This one is important, advise to upgrade !

CVE-2019-0190 : mod_ssl 2.4.37 remote DoS when used with OpenSSL 1.1.1

Severity: Important

Vendor: The Apache Software Foundation

Versions Affected:
httpd 2.4.37

Description:
A bug exists in the way mod_ssl handled client renegotiations.A remote attacker could send a carefully crafted request that would cause mod_ssl to enter a loop leading to a denial of service. This bug can be only triggered with Apache HTTP Serverversion 2.4.37 when using OpenSSL version 1.1.1 or later, due to an interaction in changes to handling of renegotiation attempts.

Mitigation:
All httpd users consuming mod_ssl combined with OpenSSL 1.1.1 or later should upgrade to 2.4.38 or later.

Credit:
The issue was identified through user bug reports.
