--- fixes: - | Fixes `bug 1934252`_ which ignored invalid denylist patterns. The fix entailed checking the pattern string via regular expression compiler and testing for zero length. Previously you could create blacklist/denylist using string that cannot be used either as a regex or as a zone name, for example: patterns = ['', ``'#(*&^%$%$#@$']`` In addition, the server will return a 400 BadRequest response to an invalid pattern. .. _Bug 1934252: https://bugs.launchpad.net/designate/+bug/1934252
