You should just run "yum update" or "yum update kernel*". The latest released updates are always there. If there's a reason that yum doesn't work for you, you should post that so people can give you a more appropriate solution.

Hi, I am using centos 6.5 minimal version, some of the updates may not be relevant for my OS. So I need to verify and decide the patches and accordingly need to update my OS. Please is there any way for this?
Thanks and regards Dilip Kumar B

yum update will only update the packages installed on your system, so if you've installed certain packages, then its presumed that any fixes/updates to those packages are relevant.
the descriptions of what the various updates fix are documented on redhat's update bulletins.

I believe "yum update" updates only currently-installed packages, so they should all be relevant.

yum update also prompts you to confirm the install before proceeding. But as I wrote earlier, "yum update kernel*" will attempt to update just the kernel packages (and prompt for confirmation before installing).
