Bugfix: Prevent cleartext transmission of tz data during build
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
grunt build script downloaded tz data via unencrypted ftp, which could
enable an attacker to MITM and provide a bogus tz data, compromising the
build pipeline or the whole build moment.

Switch to using an https endpoing provided by IANA to avoid this.

Advisory: GHSA-v78c-4p63-2j6c
