Being comfortable with that means you are comfortable with:
      * the proficiency of the bug triager to identify what could be
        sensitive information
      * the tenacity of the triager to hunt down all possible leaks
      * the trustworthy-ness of everyone who has access to private bugs
      * the trustworthy-ness of the LP software to keep information in
        private bugs private
      * the security of the LP website and it's backing infrastructure

I could keep going. The bottom line is that if information is
sensitive, know where it's going and everyone who will deal with it, or
don't give it. Personally if it's sensitive and unnecessary to be
shared, I don't share it.
