I just tried that URL and did an 'apt update' and it seemed to work,
there were no errors and seemed to be download a new package list.
Interesting that the one I had doesn't have the 'debian-security' bit.
Also, the online examples of sources.list for Buster have the URL
'http://deb.debian.org/debian-security', I beleive that uses the CDN.
So, for me, all three of these seem work...
deb http://security.debian.org/ buster/updates main
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main
