Ahah. After hunting through 10.x and 11.x sources, not finding those,
seeing reference to having removed some pkg-* scripts along the way ..
What version of FreeBSD are you running? (uname -a) and how was it
installed; originally or by freebsd-update or from updated sources?
That is, was there an earlier version installed previously?
Please show output of:
ls -lrt /etc/periodic/security
And if there are any older files there, perhaps also the output of:
ls -lrtR /etc/periodic
cheers, Ian
