Indeed you're right. I've got the same experience with php5-gd library.
The audit program told that this library is vulnerable but there was no patch available.
So this message was about useless.
On the other hand in most cases this sort of applications could save admin's time.

I tried this db app on DragonFly,but guess what.You installed
sudo,then you install this vulnerability-check and it say that you
installed sudo which has local security bug.So what was help for me
then?But if you are admin of some servers then you are reading about
security problems in similar important applications and it's on you to
"fight" with it.

Did it face some problems?

It is for one guy.
It is not for the community.

exactly who is "the community"?


You and me and "that guy".
Well, I've just realized that there would be an app like portupgrade in
addition to portaudit and vulnDB (it's even more work).
As I see (from your replicas) my question is burning but I didn't want to
offend anyone of you (I'm not trolling). This is because of I migrated from
FreeBSD and I'm a novice at OpenBSD.

OpenBSD just uses different approach, got it.
