[Major] MS18-AUG: Security update for the remote code execution vulnerability in SQL Server 2016 SP1 - SQL Server 2016 SP1 - KB4293801 (x64) (ID: 429380101)

Reason for Update:

Windows 10 Version 1607 Cumulative and Delta fixlets are no longer supported on Pro/Home editions.
Un-supersede fixlet ID: 4340355 so the means to reach CU2 is still available.
Fixlet ID: 429380101 should be relevant even if only non-database components from SQL Server 2016 are installed

Actions to Take:

None
