Don't worry, serious security flaws will always be handled.

The text we use when we deprecate is like this:

   The Subversion 1.0.x line is no longer supported. This doesn't
   mean that your 1.0 installation is doomed; if it works well and is
   all you need, that's fine. "No longer supported" just means we've
   stopped accepting bug reports against 1.0.x versions, and will not
   make any more 1.0.x bugfix releases (except perhaps for a critical
   security or data-loss bug.)

That's from the 1.2 release notes.

Best,
-Karl
