Occassionally I see a security patch backported to the -STABLE branch, but if you are really concerned about security, pretty much your only hope is to either run -CURRENT or track the security updates and backport them yourself. They may not be too hard to do, but it's not just as easy as pkg_add -ui. The ports I maintain rarely have updates of that nature, so I don't usually have to deal with these issues, but some ports have to deal with it much more often. -- Aaron W.
