Hi Clifford,
I don't think so, though I can see how it would be useful.

The blog has a "vulnerability" category, though little used:
http://blog.geoserver.org/category/vulnerability/
And a tag for "security" (also little used):
http://blog.geoserver.org/tag/security/

On JIRA, it looks like there is a "Vulnerability" "component":
https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-8041?jql=project%20%3D%20GEOS%20AND%20component%20%3D%20Vulnerability

and a "label" for "security":
https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-7744?jql=labels%20%3D%20security

As to how often they're not used when they should be? No idea.

The release notes for a specific version usually do mention textually (even if 
not as a category/label/tag/whatever) that something is a security issue.

Cheers,
Jonathan

As an organization using GeoServer in a production environment, I was wondering 
if there is an existing mailing list or some other mechanism that can notify me 
when a geoserver update resolves security issues (particularly application 
vulnerabilities)? If no such thing exists, it may be possible to do this for 
myself with a filter subscription in the OSGeo JIRA instance. Are there any 
issue attributes (labels, issue types, etc.) that are reliably and consistently 
used to mark issues related to application vulnerabilities? 
 
Thanks.
