Windows Update Agent API

I am working with Windows Update Agent and I have some questions.

  • I want to manually install the patch Security Intelligence Update for Microsoft Defender Antivirus - KB2267602 (version 1.325.782.0) but I cannot find a link to download it on the internet. How can I download and install it manually?
  • I am using Windows Update Agent API to scan the missing patches on the machine and the patch Security Intelligence Update for Microsoft Defender Antivirus - KB2267602 (version 1.325.782.0) is reported as missing while the machine has the latest patch Security Intelligence Update for Microsoft Defender Antivirus - KB2267602 (version 1.353.858.0). My machine is managed by an SCCM server and I use the API to query on it (I try with C++ code and VBS script). Why is API responding with the old patch even if we have the latest patch?

Thank you.

    Thank you for your answer. The link you sent is used for the latest update patch and I want to install an older patch.

    Well there isn't an older one to be had. Sounds like something is wrong with the scan logic.

    I selected managed server for scan by using serviceId 3DA21691-E39D-4da6-8A4B-B43877BCB1B7 (in this case is SCCM server) with query "(IsInstalled=0 AND IsHidden=1) OR (IsInstalled=0 AND IsHidden=0) OR (IsInstalled=0 AND DeploymentAction=*)". I tried with C++ code and VBS script and had the same result.

    Afraid the latest update is the only one available publicly.
