2.3.6 is the most recent version.

you don't need an extension for this because the files are rendered to a
fully configurable typoscript object (type FILE) where you can use all
options that are listed on this page:
http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/references/doc_core_tsref/current/view/8/5/

and with a bit more TS and the help of optionsplit it would even be possible
to "misuse" another tt_news field (f.e. Keywords) to store the desriptions
in this field and add those decriptions to the attached files.

or you can use the extension tt_news DAM connector (news_dam_con) for this.
