What changed is that wheezy is no longer stable.

That doesn't mean that this is not due to a local modification, as your
configuration includes:

> APT::Default-Release "stable";

which is not there by default.

Your sources.list entries indicate that you're tracking "wheezy", which
is now "oldstable", not "stable". None of the sources in your list will
be providing "stable", so the message is entirely correct.
