https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/223421/webkit made it so that style check emits an error whenever ASSERT_WITH_SECURITY_IMPLICATION is used instead of RELEASE_ASSERT_WITH_SECURITY_IMPLICATION. I don't think we should have this style rule since using ASSERT_WITH_SECURITY_IMPLICATION is a valid thing to do when there is a significant perf cost. We've already had a perf regression from people mindlessly fixing this style error.
