Hmm, security updates to stable must have a lower version number than packages in testing/unstable. So packages from testing/unstable may have a higher version number than a Woody/security version but still have the security problems. Of course, most of the time 'fixed' packages are relesed into sid at a simlilar time to the secutiry updates to stable being released. Users of 'testing' only have to wait for the sid packages to filter in.
