Did you actually mean CVE-2024-33655 instead?

This implies, to me, that customization of the base unbound is specifically supported, meaning any FreeBSD site could potentially have ede enabled, and therefore by vulnerable to this CVE.

That would be an MFS of 335c7cda12138f2aefa41fb739707612cc12a9be from
stable/14 to releng/14.0 (releng/14.1 already has it) and a
corresponding MFS from stable/13 to releng/13.{2,3}.
