WSUS doesn't contain SQL-Server-Update

While manually checking for updates against Windows update and not our WSUS we noticed the update kb4019091 (Security Update for SQL Server 2014 SP 1 GDR) was missing.
Two persons then checked the download-settings in our WSUS - everything in the section SQL server was checked, except 2008 R2 and older. So we cannot understand why this update is not offered on our WSUS. Are there are other download-sections necessary in WSUS to receive all updates for our SQL servers?

Thank you!

    OK, is there a source where one could check which updates should be available in WSUS and which older ones (e. g. pre-SQL-Server 2012) have to be searched manually outside WSUS?

    And - is there a way to get e. g. lists of all / important updates for SQL-Server editions? Or do we really have to e. g. use the the MS update catalogue to just download any update available there?
    Although I guess it will be much easier to change the security setting that (our SQL-) servers shouldn't contact MS-update directly any more but use WSUS only.

    Regards
