This though was not clear at all from
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=888484#29 where the

So "the remaining CVEs were not address yet" part.

I take your last email as confirmation that they indeed *are* fixed in
0.99.3~beta2+dfsg-1 and have updated the security-tracker information
as such.
