WHOISER does not respect the timeout supplied and takes forever when an invalid TLD is supplied

Description
I'm querying domain data using Whoiser but when given a timeout of 5000 it does not respect that and it ends up quering for over 30s Also if given an invalid URL e.g "hereandthere" it takes forever to return a response for invalid TLD. This is after supplying a 5s timeout

How to reproduce

` interface DomainData { status: "success" | "error"; data: WhoisSearchResult | null; message: string; }

export async function getDomainData(domain: string): Promise<DomainData> { try { const domainData = await whoiser(domain, { timeout: 5000, });

if (!domainData) {
  throw new Error("Domain details not found");
}

console.log("searched domain details:");
return {
  status: "success",
  message: "Domain details fetched successfully",
  data: domainData,
};

} catch (error: any) { console.log("there is an error", error.message); return { status: "error", data: null, message: error.message || "An error occured while fetching domain details", }; } }

`

And here is the client

` const [data, setData] = useState<WhoisSearchResult | null>(null); const [isLoading, setIsLoading] = useState(false); const toast = useToast();

async function fetchData() { setIsLoading(true); const res = await getDomainData("hereandthere"); setIsLoading(false); if (res.data && res.status === "success") { setData(res.data); } toast({ title: "Error", description: res.message, status: res.status, duration: 9000, isClosable: true, }); }

`

loading is indefinate when invalid tlds are supplied for over 30seconds

Possible Solution
maybe fix the timeout to be respected if the request goes over 5 seconds then timeout should work
