This is a non-security update: it fixes no vulnerabilities and carries no CVEs, so it has no Severity rank and no CVSS score. It is not in Microsoft's security feed, which is why most vulnerability trackers do not list it at all. Installing it is a reliability and features decision rather than a risk one.
