Hello,
I have a question about when can a package enter

Basically, you need to think carefully about where you want what data,

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

If a (critical) vulnerability is discovered in some package which is
already in testing or stable the security team patches it and uploads a
