Default Broken bolt door hinge

I was by chance looking at the hinges on the drivers doo yesterday when I spotted one which looked a little loose. I gave it a prod and it dropped off

It looks like it's rusted and snapped leaving some still in the hole. Is this a major problem or ok to leave for now and fix later on? The other three bolts look fine with no corrosion marks visible.

Looking closer it actually looks more like a threaded bar with a nut...
