is a timely example of how Debian deals with such problems.
Note in particular the line

 stretch (security) 1.8.19p1-2.1+deb9u3 fixed

showing that stretch's version gets a fix, not an upgrade.

How you can confirm 1.8.19p1-2.1+deb9u3 fix CVE-2021-3156?

I could not see source code for that version here[1], I only can find 1.8.19p1-2.1+deb9u2 . Do source repository for security release are separated?
