Hi! I am the Debian maintainer of checkinstall. As you have noticed the upstream appears to be pretty dead. I've tried to contact the original author about the bug tracker being down and have never received a reply. I will see what I can do to fix the security issues you reported in the Debian package which will then be pulled into Ubuntu.
