Tested on 24.11 and on 25.03-DEVELOPMENT (built on Fri Dec 13 6:00:00 UTC 2024)

If to press Add for adding IPv4 or IPv6 IP List and without changing anything jump into any other menu or on a Dashboard, unnamed IP List is created ('Added unnamed IPv4 lists.png').

These Lists are not added into config file by default, but if just press Save, these empty IP lists are added into config file

        </pfblockernglistsv6>

The same behavior for DNSBL lists ('added unname DNSBL Lists.png') and if to press Save empty DNSBL lists are added into config file:

        <pfblockerngdnsbl>
            <config>
                <row>
                    <format>Auto</format>
                    <state><![CDATA[Disabled]]></state>
                    <url></url>
                    <header></header>
                </row>
                <action>Disabled</action>
                <cron>Never</cron>
                <logging>enabled</logging>
            </config>
            <config>
                <row>
                    <format>Auto</format>
                    <state><![CDATA[Disabled]]></state>
                    <url></url>
                    <header></header>
                </row>
                <action>Disabled</action>
                <cron>Never</cron>
                <logging>enabled</logging>
            </config>
        </pfblockerngdnsbl>

And it's not possible to delete them. These messages occur:

• for IP List: "Could not delete [ Type: IPv4, Name: ], not found"
• for DNSBL List: "Could not delete [ Type: DNSBL Groups, Name: ], not found"

If not to save these lists, they disappear after pfSense being rebooted. But if to save them, they remain in pfBlockerNG's config after reboot.
