“update to fix the FREAK vulnerability. The patches effect [sic: affect] both Internet Explorer and Microsoft Office”

Does the FREAK patch (KB 3046049) also patch other Microsoft programs using SSL connections, eg. Windows Essentials (Live Mai, OneDrive), etc. If not, what is the advisory for these vulnerable programs ?

Microsoft’s security bulletins do not seem to mention other Microsoft programs besides IE & Office:
