What is the problem here?  You have instructed FreeBSD to avoid
installing ports for which there exist known security vulnerabilities,
and it duly refused to install such a port.  If you're asking when
this will be fixed, that's up to someone to a) fix the
vulnerabilities, and b) submit an update to the port.
