It doesn't seem to be exactly that.

Reading help, I guess one can create a secret issues-only repository
https://help.github.com/articles/creating-an-issues-only-repository/
The permissions look almost ok, but I fear that everyone will be able
to see all the issues. Whilst we would want to restrict issues to be
visible only by "author + write/admins". Ditto pull requests.

I guess we could create a private repository per issue..... but that
will get messy quickly, although I would expect each one to be
short-lived for each individual CVE.
