At the end of last week Autodesk released Service Pack 1 for AutoCAD 2017.
The Service Pack applies to all AutoCAD 2017 based products.
The SP1 includes all the three previously released AutoCAD 2017 hotfixes.

As of this posting the Service Pack does not yet appear on the public AutoCAD download pages for the products affected.
