Hello,
you can:

1) create post script in your kickstart profile you use for
   building your systems with "yum -y upgrade"
2) there is a possibility to select "Auto Errata Update:" in
   yours system profile, but it will work only for newly synced
   erratas in RHEL and I have not tried for Fedora when syncing
   repo with spacewalk-repo-sync
3) also you can configure your client to use yum-updatesd to
   automatically pull all available updates every day or so
   (and you can have config channel on SW and activation key
   assigned to your kickstart which auto-subscribe your system
   into the channel and schedules deploy action)

Well, there might be easier solutions.

Regards,
Jan
