I am, rockspec might be wrong. See https://github.com/brunoos/luasec,
it says "Lua 5.2 and 5.3 compatibility", but no lua 5.1 is mentioned.

Are you sure about that? The rockspec says:

dependencies = {
   "lua >= 5.1", "luasocket"
}

I think the problem is:

Quoting from https://prosody.im/issues/issue/749

"LuaSec 0.6 will no longer follow the old and deprecated practice of
exporting itself into the global environment."

and the workaround is pretty easy:

Bug#842906: lua-sec 0.6 is not compatible with lua 5.1

[Elia Argentieri]

lua-sec 0.6 is not compatible with lua 5.1 and Prosody 0.9.10 runs with
lua 5.1.

We have two possibilities: make two packages lua5.1-sec=0.5.1 and
lua5.2-sec=0.6 to maintain compatibility with prosody 0.9.10, or
package Prosody 0.9.11 which contains "Workaround for compatibility
with LuaSec 0.6" [1].
