@Phillip Lötter - Welcome to Microsoft Q&A and thanks for reaching out to us.
ESUs include provision of Security Updates and Bulletins rated critical by the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) SQL Server updates marked as Important or Critical are installed through ARC SQL Automated patching. So, in theory, automated patching should install ESUs once purchased.
Hope this helps. and please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
