MS probably won't do anything about it
because it's the "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Exploder"
which will be superceded in May.

KB3038314 which was recently deployed by Windows update refuses to install. This is a 64 bit Win 7 Pro machine running IE 11. I've tried both the Windows Update web install method and downloading the update separately and both methods fail. The update is part of MS15-032 released on April 14 (Patch Tuesday). Has anyone else experienced this issue and found a solution? After the update fails there is a failure code of 80092004 displayed and a message that says "Windows Update encountered an unknown error. I have tried the Microsoft Fixit Tool and uninstalling IE 11 and reinstalling. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

GOT IT!!!!
I did a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro on April 17/2015 and same the error occurred with KB3038314. And Finally today after trying everything on this forum, I uninstalled Internet Explorer 11 and restarted with Internet Explorer 8. I then checked Windows Update for new updates and there were none. I then reinstalled Internet Explorer 11 and did a restart. I then checked for new updates again, and 3 new ones appeared:
Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB3021952)
Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2976627)
Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB3032359).
So I installed those and checked for updates again and there were no more to be found. The KB3038314 update never reappeared again and everything is now up to date.
some additional troubleshooting.
System readiness toll installed, run with no errors.
WIndows update components reset, windows agent update.
microsoft update installed and updated.
cleaned out temp directories (cleanmgr) and have manualy emptied other directories (software distribution,c:|temp, c:\windows\temp)

Same problem installing on W2K8R2SP1 fwiw. Guess we'll hold off on deploying this to servers for now.
I cannot help but think that MS have stopped distributing KB3038314 as a solution. This could be the reason that your system could not find it.
