Got things working again! For those who might encounter this in the future, here's what I did:
Manually download and extract the KB2305420 update package. (hint: rename the file extension from msu to cab) Extracted the two files that were being complained about in the system update readiness log: Package_for_KB2305420_RTM~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.3.mum Package_for_KB2305420_RTM~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.3.cat Overwrote the existing files in C:\windows\servicing\packages (this requires taking ownership as it belongs to SYSTEM) Reboot. Reran the system update readiness tool to verify everything looked OK (after seeing that there were no longer event log errors being written) Change file ownership back to SYSTEM. I was a bit surprised this did work since the files did already exist in C:\windows\servicing\packages and the error about the filename mismatch was referring to something else.
