Hi,

I have prepared a new Debian revision for the package on unstable,
containing the fix for the vulnerability. I uploaded it to mentors [1],
as I have no uploading rights to the archive, and opened an RFS [2].

Should I wait until the bug is closed on unstable before I prepare a
revision to stable? Debian Developer's Reference says so [3], but I was
not sure whether it was valid to security fixes too.
