    Yes it does if you check the second post of this thread, or click here.

    Plus, there's a new version that's just been released 10.0.27777.1000, available on MS Update Catalog website

    Wonderful! I read the first post about a dozen times and couldn't figure it out. I didn't scroll down far enough!

    I'll wait until you update the package tomorrow to integrate my updates. Thanks for you work, it is appreciated!

    Your welcome, though you will need to extract the Microsoft.SecHealthUI_8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx file from the executable file using 7-zip. Then add the Microsoft.SecHealthUI_8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx file into the Microsoft.SecHealthUI_8wekyb3d8bbwe folder that's available in the Apps folder.

    Now I'm confused. If I wait and download your updated file tomorrow, I won't need to include kb5007651 in my updates, right? Because it'll already be included in your update tomorrow, right? Or am I wrong on that?

    When i said yes, I meant that it's available to download and install separately from the second post. But you can integrate the Microsoft.SecHealthUI_8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx into your offline image tomorrow by placing it in the Apps folder, I have provided some screenshots on how to do that. Windows Security Update is not included in the defender cabs, only the latest anti-virus definition files and platform update are in the cab files.
