If you follow the vuxml URL that 'pkg audit' tells you, you will find that this is a local privilege escalation bug. That's less serious than many security problems, and depending on your local situation, may not even be a problem for you at all (for instance, if everyone who can login to your machine already has root level access...) There are fixes for perl 5.24 and 5.22 upstream and I believe patches for 5.20 are being worked on, but they haven't hit the ports just yet.
