This link lists the vulnerabilities that were fixed as of 1.4.19.  If
you are running 1.4.19, you are not vulnerable to any of them.

There is only one security-related fix in 1.4.20 (actually
1.4.20-RC1), and it may be less likely to be used as an attack vector
(but who knows).  The long incubation of 1.4.20 was due to the more
invasive changes to the code, however I expect to be releasing it
officially in the next week or two.  You are always welcome to try a
1.4.20 snapshot on our downloads page (not the release candidate
package).
