See https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=215802

A CVE has been out for  libvncserver for a couple of weeks and Vladimir
Krstulja <vlad-fbsd at acheronmedia.com> has submitted a patch to move to the
fixed version in bug 215802. As it is needed for VirtualBox remote access,
I'd really like to see this committed. The patch is rather trivial.

I don't know what other ports use net/libnvcserver, so there may be issues
for which I am unaware, but I'd love to have a committer take a look at it.

Thanks,
