It is two "minor releases" further. If /etc/redhat-release tells you, that you still have CentOS 3.3, then you haven't updated your system for close to 6 months - so a "fully patched" 3.3 cannot be "fully patched" - as it will become a 3.5 system just by running "yum update". Besides the security updates RedHat sometimes also pushes functioniality upgrades with the minor releases.
