Package: unattended-upgrades
Version: 0.80~exp2

With the default configuration file package selection will be done based on 
Suite, not Codename:

/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:
...
Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern {
...
        "origin=Debian,archive=stable,label=Debian-Security";
};
...

This means that, after a new Debian release migrates to stable, 
unattended-upgrades will happily install packages from that new release. 
Security updates are intended to not break anything, but only if the update is 
for the same Debian release. I think the default configuration should contain 
something like this instead:

...
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename},label=Debian-Security";
...

This way, only updates for the current release will be installed, and the 
administrator wouldn't need to edit the configuration file each time a new 
Debian version is released.
