I know there are other, newer apache versions, but SuSE doesn't have them. I

SuSE, and other distributors, commonly preserve the version number of
software even as they patch the versions they offer to fix
vulnerabilities.  It's a headache because it means you have to look at
their README files and other documentation to see if they've fixed the
vulnerabilities you're looking for.

But apparently, it avoids breaking their package management systems.
