Re: security support for testing distribution



Does that mean that security updates go from unstable to testing security repository to testing distribution or am I misreading something here?

No.

If a (critical) vulnerability is discovered in some package which is already in testing or stable the security team patches it and uploads a fix into the security archive for the appropriate release. (for the users to fix the problem immediately)

Then they notify the author and he applies the fix in unstable, which then migrates on to testing and stable as usual.
