I saw the timeout yesterday after reading your mail, but it works now.

security.debian.org is backed by a number of different machines and
the onion service is backed by those same machines via onionbalance.
One of the machines was recently down (restarted yesterday). During
the outage it was removed from security.d.o but I guess not from the
onion service. I guess this could have been the cause of this issue,
but I would have thought that onionbalance would have prevented down
machines from affecting the service.

Done.

PS: debian-www is the mailing list for the content of www.debian.org,
a better list for outages is debian-admin.
