@EnterpriseArchitect,Thanks for posting in Q&A.

From your description, I know that you want to patch third-party applications or update them via Intune.

Based on my research, you can deploy third-party software package, it is suggested to use win32 app via Intune.

And we can add Win32 app supersedence to update this app.

Please note that if you manually installed the apps instead of deploying them via Intune, you cannot update them via Intune.

Moreover, here is a link about how to patch third part application.
