Hello,

The current png-1.2.5_4 port has no more vulnerability.
It has been corrected by ache at FreeBSD.org yesterday.
But when i try to install the updated port to remplace
the vulnerable one this is what i am told :

# make install
===>  png-1.2.5_4 has known vulnerabilities:
 >> libpng denial-of-service.
    Reference: 
<http://people.freebsd.org/~eik/portaudit/3a408f6f-9c52-11d8-9366-0020ed76ef5a.html>
 >> Please update your ports tree and try again.
*** Error code 1

The 4-STABLE ports tree is up-to-date.

Isn't it a problem to be unable to update a vulnerable port ?
