The ftp/curl port will be built against the base system copy of openssl
by default, in which case this vulnerability won't affect it.

You can configure the port to link against libnss3.so in which case curl
presumably would be vulnerable.  The latest VuXML entry for curl

https://vuxml.freebsd.org/freebsd/e4bc70fc-5a2f-11e6-a1bc-589cfc0654e1.ht=
ml

only mentions CVE-2016-5420, and there doesn't appear to be anything
relevant listed against nss. Plus the version of curl in the ports at
the moment predates the fix in version 7.50.2.  I'd assume curl is
vulnerable if it is built with the NSS option turned on and if the nss
port is installed.

Please do raise a PR to report this to the maintainer of the curl port.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
