The advisory is about Sendmail in the base system, so anything you do with ports
shouldn't affect it.

There is, of course, a possibility to install Sendmail from ports (replacing
the one in the base system) and if the port is recent enough then the problem
is fixed there. But you need to check the port information first.

I think that for just fixing this particular bug it is easier to patch and
rebuild the base system sendmail as described in the advisory.
