VLC and Westnoth may not be the best examples because they do get security updates (An example being VLC version 2.1.6-0ubuntu14.04.2 and Westnoth 1:1.10.7-1ubuntu0.14.04.1, both of are available from security despite living in Universe.) Keep in mind security doesn't mean the latest available version. Similar to Debian if a security issue is found in VLC or Westnoth that fix can be backported, assuming that the fix even impacts that specific version in the first place (it may not, and if so renders the issue moot over that particular security issue.)
