What does it state in the information provided? It's likely updates for malware. Just found this: Apple security updates - Apple Support.
There's nothing big in these security updates, they just patch bugs that Apple find relating to security. However, you should install it ASAP since they fix security vulnerabilities in your system.
Howdy,
