“No data” means the system has no list of vulnerabilities per port that this site reads (OpenBSD and MidnightBSD), not that the port has none. A status is what the port's Makefile declares (DEPRECATED, BROKEN, EXPIRATION_DATE), read in the trees whose Makefiles this site reads: FreeBSD's and MidnightBSD's. A row without a link is a derivative's port that is FreeBSD's, listed on FreeBSD's page.
