The general answer here is to look at the security tracker page for
the source package:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/openjdk-7
If the page is incorrect, it needs to be updated:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/data/report
You can see here which versions of openjdk-7 are included in Debian:
http://packages.debian.org/src:openjdk-7
http://packages.qa.debian.org/o/openjdk-7.html
