I don't use My SQL, but the list does not include any CVEs that are
applicable to the versions currently in ports. Ot at least MySQL 5.5. and
VirtualBox. (Packages lag a bit and I imagine that 5.5.53 (MySQL) and 5.1.8
(VB) may not be available in all repos for a couple of days.)

Many of us see this as a major weakness in the FreeBSD security model.
The fact that a port or package was deprecated after being installed is
simply not a good reason for not listing it in the vulnxml.  I say this
from experience have had to inform more than one FreeBSD site that they
were hosting known insecure software when they had previously trusted
'pkg audit'.
