It was uploaded to and affected Debian testing and unstable. Testing has not yet been officially "released", but some people use testing as if it were an official release. Unstable never gets released.When I say released I meant in the sense of made available for download, not in the sense of software engineering and doing a proper "release".
So, at the risk of sounding nitpicky, the Debian testing + unstable archives are pretty much equivalent to Fedora rawhide. Even though Redhat's position is that issues affecting only rawhide should not get CVE identifiers, in Debian I think we should try to be more honest, so we'll assign identifiers to all "uploaded" versions (in Debian, we use the term upload to mean that a package is available in an archive vice the term release).
