You could query using DoH:
#curl -H 'accept: application/dns-json' 
'https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query?name=current.cvd.clamav.net&type=TXT'

> Hi,

> in my current working environment I do not have direct internet access,
> nor is it possible to query public DNS servers.
> Running a command like "host -t txt current.cvd.clamav.net" yields no
> result.
> The only way out is a proxy.
> I still would like to figure out whether or not my local database is up
> to date.
> Can I retrieve the information contained in the DNS TXT record via a
> http(s) source as well? If so, how?

> Thanks a lot in advance.
