In NLnet Labs Unbound 1.7.0 up to and including 1.25.1, when an auth/rpz zone has a configured primary hostname that resolves to BOGUS A/AAAA, it is still considered as a possible XFR endpoint. A malicious actor that can spoof the hostnames A/AAAA record (no valid RRSIG required) becomes the zones XFR primary and can replaces the entire zone/the resolvers entire response policy.
Weakness
The product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data.
