Notes on the updates
Windows 10 version 1903 and 1909 and 2004 and 20H2 share a common core and have an identical set of system files. Therefore, the same security updates are delivered for Windows 10 version 190x and Windows 10 2004/20H2. Information on how to enable the features of Windows 10 version 1909 as well as 20H2, which is done through an Enablement Package update, can be found in this Techcommunity post.
All Windows 10 updates are cumulative. The monthly Patchday update includes all security fixes for Windows 10 and all non-security fixes through Patchday. In addition to vulnerability security patches, the updates include security improvements.
Windows 7 SP1 is no longer supported as of January 2020. Only customers with a 2nd year ESU license (or bypass measures) will still receive updates. The current ESU bypass lets you install the update. Updates can also be downloaded from the Microsoft Update Catalog. Updates for Windows RT 8.1 and Microsoft Office RT are only available through Windows Update.
Fixed vulnerabilities
The February 2021 security updates cover 56 vulnerabilities (CVEs) in Microsoft products such as Microsoft Windows, Edge, Microsoft Office, etc. One is a 0-day patch with it, 11 are rated critical and 43 are rated important. A list of all security updates including CVEs can be found on the Zero Day Initiative blog as well as Bleeping Computer (details are covered separately in blog posts).
