Moritz, I personally have never seen any detailed changelog information for Intel-provided microcode updates.
Whether or not this microcode update includes security fixes is entirely conjectural. Intel went to the effort of providing the updated microcode, so someone there believes their customers would be better with the fixes than without the fixes, but we, like you, have no specific information what features or fixes these updates add or remove.
