Missing fixes for mysql56-server in Q4 branch?

Hi all,

I thought quarterly ports branches would receive security fixes from
HEAD but no other version bumps.

If this is correct, then why is MySQL 5.6 in Q4 one version behind HEAD
(updated 6 weeks ago) and with all the critical security issues still present?

Thanks for clarifying,
Patrick
