Like any other Apple OS update, OS X 10.9.4 also contains fixes for a bunch of security issues. The details of these issues can be found on Apple's website.

As usual, to download and install the update, click the Apple menu and choose Software Update to check for the latest Apple software via the Mac App Store, including this update.
