Isn't the normal credit for a bug reported in public (whether or not a 
security bug): the bug number is referenced in the ChangeLog and the 
commit message, and anyone can follow that reference back to see who 
reported the bug?  I would hope that databases of CVEs would also point 
directly to the bug report in Bugzilla, not just the commit fixing the 
bug.
