Security updates are available via the security archive. The stable release updates are a collection of mostly these security updates... Note that the contents of the security archive isn't blocked by the ftp-masters in any way that I'm aware of. I'm also confident that the ftp-masters blocking on the stable release updates is only temporary and will require less work in the future... I don't expect any problems with the stable release updates by the way as very capable persons have already taken over...
