Why do you say that these packages have no or limited security support ?

Because Debian says so.

Description: Debian security support coverage checker
 For some Debian packages, it is not feasible to maintain full security
 support for all use cases through the full distribution release
 cycle.
 .
 This package provides a program to identify installed packages for
 which support has had to be limited or prematurely ended, and to
 alert the administrator.
 .
 New versions of this package with updated checklists will be provided
 via standard and/or extended security support.


root@fsing ~ # env LANG=C check-support-status Limited security support for one or more packages

Unfortunately, it has been necessary to limit security support for some packages.

The following packages found on this system are affected by this:

* Source:binutils
  Details: Not covered by security support
  Affected binary packages:
  - binutils (installed version: 2.31.1-16)
  - binutils-common:amd64 (installed version: 2.31.1-16)
  - binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu (installed version: 2.31.1-16)
  - libbinutils:amd64 (installed version: 2.31.1-16)


Shade and sweet water!
