Go to http://www.debian.org/, scroll down the page to the 'Release errata' 
section. Follow the link.  Read the erratas.  Then go to your favorite
Debian ftp mirror and look in the dists/stable(recently updated), the
dist/proposed-updates directory, or in dists/slink if the errata page
mentioned it and download the files that need to be updated.
