The Community Edition does not supply patches. You get security
fixes by using "bfu" or by upgrading. For Solaris 10, there is
normally a security cluster & you can find out about new security
issues by signing up for SunAlerts.
Be careful with bfu though - it will block your ability to install most
of the security updates for the OS by rendering your system non-upgradable
by normal means (and since bfu itself only covers about 20% of Solaris, and
very little of the parts with sources shared with other OS'es for which the
security vulnerabilities are much more public, if security alerts are your
top concern, bfu is the wrong way to go).
