Upstream was fixing issues and probably was doing as they wanted. That is, there's another SIGSEGV issue [1] and it's in tiffcrop as well. Upstream fixed it and was going on with other fixes. Then maybe they couldn't reproduce the mentioned CVE issue and went on releasing v4.5.1 with several other CVE fixes [2]. There Timothy Lyanguzov commented that bug#529 probably will get a CVE id too, but he couldn't reproduce it with that Git HEAD. Answer is simple, the other SIGSEGV issue [1] fix solved this issue as well. As upstream probably didn't recognize and couldn't reproduce this SIGSEGV (anymore), it remained open.
