There is always a delay. Usually the e-mail distribution goes out an hour or two after the update itself is released, and the support page gets updated a little bit after that.

I do remember a slight delay, but I don't recall them adding an actual entry early with a placeholder "available soon"? Maybe I'm just misremembering.

I have seen this many times.

I guess we'll be getting macOS 10.13.5 at a later date, together with these advisories then.

Edit: looks like 11.4 fixes another root exploit with details "probably next week" (is that an estimate for 10.13.5 then?) - https://twitter.com/i41nbeer/status/1001548232613421057

You're right, I think the last time the delay was this long was exactly that. Better (?) than the times Apple self-dropped 0day on themselves by disclosing Safari bugs that were not fixed on the other platforms I guess.
