May be adding "security warnings "in module dependencies" .. to 
distinguish it from having security issues in the project code itself - 
then we had to follow ASF standard security procedures.

(Another solution might be to publish the result page of the check, but 
this should then be be updated for every push/commit)

But we could point to it, although it seems to me not to be enforced by 
any ASF policy in this case ..

Should we say something like:

Torque team have addressed two recently reported security warnings
(CVE-2020-8908 and CVE-2020-9488) by upgrading to the fixed version of
the relevant packages.

Would that be accurate?
