Check what? It is also the 20058 version update, but does not apply to the free Reader. Please tell us what makes you convinced that Reader 20058 has a vulnerability. So far you have posted nothing to confirm that.

Adobe has released an out-of-cycle update for a different security issue you didn't mention. 2018.011.20063 was released yesterday without warning. 18.011.20063 Out of cycle update, September 19, 2018 — Release Notes for Acrobat DC Products

So to answer your question "when will the next release be", it was yesterday, but nobody could have answered before then. The most important issue it fixes, CVE-2018-12848 is still secret.

I knew that there was something wrong here in reader, waw that was a big one I guess to keep it under the table.

You keep posting that, but it very clearly says that 20058 is NOT VULNERABLE to this issue. So, why do you keep posting it?

You'd have to ask Kapersky what vulnerability is present, since their article says something different. The article clearly says that 20058 FIXES the problem. There are quite a few releases each year, and sometimes extra ones for serious bugs or vulnerabilities.

Adobe do not pre-announce releases or their content. Especially for vulnerabilities. Can you post a link to a report of the vulnerability, others may be very interested.
