They are publishing SAs, they should create and submit entries to vuxml. They are almost always lacking behind, sometimes for months. I tried created patches with entries in the past because I am the author of base-audit script and maintainer of the port but then it was waiting for a long time to have it confirmed by Security Officer Team.

Apparently, the backend that serves the vuxml for clients  hasn’t been updated for the ports git transition. There is a pr for that already and hopefully it will be sorted soon.

Good to hear that. I hope it will be fixed soon.
