Magento also provides an option to fix only security issues and vulnerabilities identified in the last version upgrade. For that, you need to download a security-only patch if you don’t want to upgrade the whole package. However, upgrading the whole package is recommended by Magento for better performance and security concerns.
For Magento 2.3.3, the security patch is available as 2.3.3.1(composer packages 2.3.3-p1). You can download this as a different package from Magento 2.3.4 using the composer.
Magento has also announced that it will release the Magento 2.4 as well in the year 2020. To know more about this upgrade, read this article.
Magento has built Some modules just to decouple them from the core release process of Magento commerce. Before releasing any of the modules, Magento releases the iterations of the module to the merchants who will be accepting a little risk by upgrading and integrating these modules with their store for getting access to these releases and new features in advance.
