That's not correct.
The reason the BTS thinks this affects unstable is only that the "found"
version is unknown to the BTS (because it's a version that is available
only in the security archive, which is not used by the BTS) so it thinks
it affects all versions, it would have corrected the versioning once the
version moves to stretch proper in a point release.
However, also tagging as stretch should do that.
Closing is not correct in any way in this case as, due to the
aferomentioned property of the BTS of not recognizing the version, it
would also archive the bug, causing impossibility of proper tracking of
the issue. It would have been enough (in case the above tag doesn't do
it), to just set a a 'fixed' version without closing.
