You mean those, I assume:

  https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/
  https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/data/json

I suppose the web page enriches the JSON data with information
available from other Debian sources.

That said, this is Debian, so you get the source code for (nearly)
everything. The security tracker's source seems to be here:

  https://salsa.debian.org/security-tracker-team/security-tracker/

...so you can perhaps study how the web page fills in the data
you are missing in the JSON. And you can contact the authors
in case of doubt.

Cheers
