Bastian,

the above is just not true.  Security bugs in stable should be handled
by the maintainer, with the security team acting as a support and
backup.  And once issues are public, filing bugs is very much
appropriate.  Finally, if these bugs still affect unstable, they should
be handled there by the maintainer as well, or if they are already fixed
there, they can be closed with the corresponding version tracking
information, not just summarily closed.

Cheers,
Julien
