This bug is about CVE-2012-1016. If the package contains a fix for
CVE-2012-1016 then the bug is fixed, whether or not the changelog
correctly indicates that.

Yes, the changelog should be corrected, but that doesn't change the fact
that the package includes the fix for the security issue discussed in
this bug report.

maintainer / security team are of course free to disagree...)
