Update Release 2 for WHS v1 has been released to Windows Update by Microsoft. It includes 8 fixes found since the last major update in August of last year.
2 of the fixes relate to security, although details are nonexistent and no security bulletin has been released on them:
Issue 6: The current version of Identity Client Run Time Library that is included in Windows Home Server contains a potential privacy issue.
Issue 8: The Remote Access website may be vulnerable to cross-site request forgery attacks.
If you run Windows Home Server and are set for Automatic Updates you should see it available. Since the update requires a reboot to install, it may not have installed, so it’s worth a check.
