Myself, I don't use Crapfox, and therefore don't pay any attention to its
Debian versioning, but if normal Debian practices are being followed,
security fixes are backported to stable, rather than new and untested
versions being packaged for stable.
This means that the v1.04 available from s.d.o would have v1.07's security
fixes in it. I'm sure you can review the package changelog to find out for
sure.
