How to get new iOS SDK in Xcode 9.2?

My app patch binary was just rejected by Apple and crash logs show that it was tested against iOS 11.2.5, but my latest simulator is 11.2. All of my local UI Tests and Unit Tests passed.

I'd like to test and fix this, but I cannot get iOS 11.2.5 simulators. The traditional approach is to go to devices and download new simulators in Xcode. However, even my most recent simulators (11.2) do not show up here. And no amount of "Check and Install" makes 11.2.5 appear as a choice. download simulator screen

Please help. Here is what I have tried.

If you're using Xcode 9.2 you have installed the SDK for iOS 11.2 already. You can prove that by opening System Preferences -> General -> About in the simulator. Thus, Xcode will not display n item for downloading it. The SDKs are also only for minor releases. There are no SDKs for different patch versions.

If you actually have a bug that occurs in this version, you should get a corresponding device and test it for it. I suspect, however, that this is due to the differences between simulator and real hardware.
