patches welcome, of course.
So far the guesses are:
RHEL bug ( I wouldn't be happy, if I was a RHEL user and saw this )
Microsoft owned Bugzilla :) ( My favourite )
Security Embargo
Bugs marked security/private are only viewable by the submitter and
assignee. Anyone submitting a bug can mark one as such. There is no
conspiracy at work.
But how do we really know? How much do we trust Redhat?
Yeah, definitely. They're out to get us. Everyone, don your tinfoil
hats, quickly!

I didn't say Redhat was out to get us, but not everyone wants others to
make security decisions on their behalf. Something that they consider
low risk is not necessarily considered low risk by everyone. They could
at least give a description of what is effected, how exposure can be
limited and when full disclosure will be given. They don't have to
expose information necessary for exploit. Also, Rehat is fallible just
like every other organisation, just take a walk through bugzilla and see
how many bugs are still at the NEW state. How many people are actually
reading them? Do they always trust the reporter to recognise a security
problem?
Anyway, who knows what this is? It may not be anything related to security.
