SQL Server 2014 Service Pack 1 CU7

On June 20, 2016, Microsoft released SQL Server 2014 Service Pack 1 CU7, which is Build 12.0.4459. This cumulative update has 35 fixes in the public hot fix list. Quite a few of these fixes seem to be pretty significant.

They also released SQL Server 2014 RTM CU14, which is Build 12.0.2569. This cumulative update has 21 fixes in public hot fix list. This is the last CU for the RTM branch.

SQL Server 2014 Service Pack 2 is due to be released in July of 2016, so depending on how old of a build of SQL Server 2014 you are on, you might just want to wait for SP2. Otherwise, I think you should try to stay on a current CU, in a proactive fashion. Microsoft recently changed their official guidance about installing CUs, as you can read about here.
