I don't think that a full security audit is being requested. Rather, I think that the original poster is simply asking that these things be addressed as they are reported.

There has not been a refusal to address the issue but there is no commitment yet as to when (and if) a replacement for 3.8.2 would become available. The 3.9.0beta package is currently not binary compatible with libtiff 3.8.2. Libtiff 4.0.0 is still on the horizon as well.
