freebsd security - May 2004 - Bad VuXML check on PNG port ?

Hello,

The current png-1.2.5_4 port has no more vulnerability.
It has been corrected by ache@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:

 >> 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 ?

The VuXML document needed to be updated after ache@ made the fix.
I've done so now.
