I can understand that position. The bugs they find include potential security flaws, for which exploits could be created if the results are freely available. While its clearly impossible to keep that information only with trusted people, they need to make a faithful attempt to restrict it. If you have contributed to open source projects, you should ask the maintainers of these projects to copy you the reports they produced. If these maintainers consider you trustworthy, they will reveal it to you.
