The point is, to quote the paper:

"a vast majority of vulnerabilities and their corresponding security patches 
remain beyond public exposure"

Vulnerabilities are fixed in fresh versions of software. The versions in Stable 
stay vulnerable, even if all CVEs are reported to Debian (which I don't think 
is the case) and even if they are all fixed quickly (which is definitely not 
the case)  It's a limitation of Debian's and RH's approach, compared to the 
rolling-release approach. This is one of the two things I mentioned that 
debian.org/security is not telling you.

That doesn't help people who trusted debian.org/security and are running it.
