            Bug ID: 274027
           Summary: dns/void-zones-tools: Now kills unbound. Needs to be
                    updated from upstream.

The latest version of dns/void-zones-tools (1.0.2) was made in September of
2022. Since that time, a couple changes have been made upstream. The one that
is important in regards to this bug report is:

https://github.com/cyclaero/void-zones-tools/commit/9848ff4bdf5bf323fd9b72d31cf1d9e882f4e911

In that upstream change (from November of 2022), the source
malwaredomainlist.com was removed from the update, due to being no longer
maintained and giving an essentially empty list. Further info on this can be
found here:

https://github.com/cyclaero/void-zones-tools/issues/10

As noted above, this change has not yet made it into the FreeBSD version. This
fact didn't really matter until this morning; the "essentially empty list" that
was being retrieved from the site was irrelevant to the operation of
void-zones-tools. However, this morning, it suddenly became very, very
relevant:

The site is now no longer simply unmaintained; it's now a domain parking page.
And so the file that void-zones-tools retrieves from it is now no longer an
empty-ish void zones list; it is the HTML source code of that domain parking
page.

This page is apparently then treated by void-zones-tools as if it were a void
zones list, resulting in a bunch of snippets of HTML going into the actual void
zones table that is created by void-zone-tools. And, very importantly:

Those snippets kill unbound. Kill it dead. It refuses to start up due to them.

Please update from upstream so that void-zone-tools can once again be used on
FreeBSD. Thanks.
