Hi Daniele!

To acknowledge the fix of this security bug, I should put something in the changelog anyway, right?
Something like this:
 * Acknowledge fix for CVE-2014-1829 and CVE-2014-1830 in 2.3.0-1
   (Closes: #733108)

Developer reference[ยน] says: "When closing security bugs include CVE numbers as well as the Closes: #nnnnn. This is useful for the security team to track vulnerabilities. If an upload is made to fix the bug before the advisory ID is known, it is encouraged to modify the historical changelog entry with the next upload."

As the DevRef suggests, you should retroactively add the CVE reference to the changelog entry for 2.3.0-1, so don't mention "in 2.3.0-1".

So using "Closes: #733108" although the bug is arleady closed seems ok to me, is that right?

Yup, that should be fine.
