There is one known issue with this update according to Microsoft:

Windows Update will not offer this security update to Windows RT-based computers until update 2808380 is installed. For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 2808380. Windows RT-based device cannot download software updates or Windows Store apps

That knowledge base article and update is from March 2013 so it is quite likely you already have it installed on your Windows RT based device if you keep it updated.
