The stable update was announced on
debian-stable-announce@lists.debian.org last Monday:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-stable-announce/2014/10/msg00000.html
(It's a useful list to subscribe to; its volume is very low).

The announcement includes a list of packages updates with reasons,
including for the linux kernel.
