The bug is old, just the fix hasn't reached ports yet.  (Yes the bug
is in flash and there's a workaround in libvdpau now, but since flash
is Linux code it's the _Linux_ libvdpau that needs the workaround,
i.e. /compat/linux/usr/lib/libvdpau.so.* not /usr/local/lib/libvdpau.so.*
and the former is installed by the nvidia-driver port which currently
is at a version that doesn't have the fix yet.)

 So you need to either disable vdpau for flash in flash's context
menu _or_ grab the latest Linux(!) libvdpau out of (for example)
Nvidia's latest driver tarball. [1]  Well, or wait until the
nvidia-driver port gets updated...

 HTH,

[1] I tested the one in NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86_64-310.19.tar.gz and also
found the workaround needs linprocfs(5) mounted for the running-in-flash
detection to work.
