ISC DHCP Client and Relay End of Maintenance
The gitlab says they'll update the tools if security issues are found but otherwise the project is archived. The DHCPv4 client is about 25 years old. I think if there were a major bug we would have found it by now.

How to set option 132 in Linux DHCPD.conf
Option 132 is not in the standard list of options, otherwise you could just use its name. Have you tried naming it "option-132" instead of "vlan-id"? Some older versions of dhcpd required that instead of the first line where you define the option.
What are some alternatives?
