The main problem is that Asterisk is team maintained and nobody in
the team (except you at the moment) seems to care about a save version
of asterisk in stable and oldstable.  The security team itself is not
able to support the package on its own and thus has to depend on the
respective maintainers.

The question is what is better:

 . stale version of Asterisk with local and remote vulnerabilities
   in Debian stable, OR

 . no version of Asterisk in Debian stable at all

Moritz preference is the second.
