2.40 uses the same browser engine as firefox 43.0 which is vulnerable. As mail/thunderbird and www/firefox-esr are going to switch to 45.1esr in a few weeks converting www/seamonkey to use mail/thunderbird distfile would be more desirable. Upstream appears to be drowning in its own infra issues. If you still want 2.40 submit patches provided seamonkey-i18n, linux-seamonkey and Mk/Uses/gecko.mk are kept in sync.
