It would make it easier for people to find if a bug has already been reported, which is what Torvalds mentions as being a problem.

    The mailing list for security vulnerabilities is private, in order to keep zero days a secret before they are patched. This is the issue, not the mailing list. Moving away from mailing lists wouldn't solve this because the vulnerabilities would still have to be private.
