I'm currently running debian 8 and I want to upgrade security patches which is provided by debian but problem is that, if I upgrade a single package then it asks to upgrade many packages, as in:
$ apt-get upgrade openssl
The following packages will be upgraded:
dpkg dpkg-dev krb5-locales libapache2-mod-php5 libdpkg-perl libfreetype6 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-common libgssapi-krb5-2
libk5crypto3 libkrb5-3 libkrb5support0 libpng12-0 libssl1.0.0 linux-headers-3.2.0-4-amd64 linux-headers-3.2.0-4-common
linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64 linux-libc-dev ntp php5 php5-cli php5-common php5- curl php5-readline tzdata unzip virtualbox virtualbox-dkms
virtualbox-qt....too many
The following packages have been kept back:
acpid anacron apt-xapian-index aptitude aptitude-common aspell-de at at- spi2-core avahi-daemon base-passwd bind9-host binfmt-support
bsdutils consolekit cron cryptsetup-bin db5.1-util dbus default-jre default- jre-headless dictionaries-common dmsetup dnsmasq-base
dnsutils dovecot-core dovecot-imapd dovecot-pop3d duplicity fakeroot gdebi- core gettext gir1.2-accountsservice-1.0 gir1.2-atspi-2.0
gir1.2-folks-0.6 gir1.2-gck-1 gir1 ....too many
How to skip the above packages?

You have to use
sudo apt-get --only-upgrade install openssl
this will upgrade only openssl package and, eventually, the dependencies.

The problem with this is that it also marks the package as being manually installed. I know I can reset it withapt-mark, but I do wonder if there's a way to avoid that little extra trouble.

Install aptitude. Use its intuitive UI to make individual actions. That helps you to find the correct balance if you certainly need to break some dependency or downgrade some of the packages.
For example, if you mark that package for removal, it can list all the packages that get affected, and there you can browse through (using comma and period) all the automatic suggestions, including the one for upgrading just that one.

Install aptitude. Use its intuitive UI to make individual actions. That helps you to find the correct balance if you certainly need to break some dependency or downgrade some of the packages.
For example, if you mark that package for removal, it can list all the packages that get affected, and there you can browse through (using comma and period) all the automatic suggestions, including the one for upgrading just that one.

If you're running Debian 8 you should really upgrade all those other packages too; the stable distribution has very strict conditions for updates, so if a package upgrade is available there's generally a very good reason for it.
