These 'security holes' are not typically security holes which let people do things with the device without authorisation from the device's owner; instead, they prevent authorised people… from doing things
The exploits used to allow authorized people to "do things" are the same exploits that can be used to allow unauthorized people to "do things". There's no differentiation at all, except the intent of the person writing the exploit payload.
You might argue that Apple should give jailbreakers everything they want, but Apple won't do that. You can't seriously argue that Apple should hold off on patching security holes because they're being used today by nice people.
