Not sure exactly when it happened but I just went down into my trading hall and there was 3 villagers that have become zombies for seemingly no reason. They are all in very well lit areas with access to their beds and their job blocks. They are cured, master level villagers.
I traded with them very often they all 3 bought my iron. They were two armor smiths and one weapon smith.
They retained their names and are still named. I have checked every nook there's no dark spots for zombies to spawn to kill them.
When I cured them back they still were master level and had the same trades. It was just strange to see them safely in their apartments with no way of getting hit by zombies but they were zombies.

I'm not sure if it's recreatable.alk I know is my villagers were in safe spaces and when I came down to my trading hall there was 3 of them zombies. The image shows that they are sealed and couldn't interact with each other. The only thing that can spawn here to hurt them are slimes. They were on the west wall. All I'm saying is that it's possible that some kind of glitch causes them to become zombies again. When I traded with them after re curing they were still master and had the same trades and discounts.

Based on the screenshot, a baby zombie could have gotten into their cells and attacked them, and then later despawned. There must be a path from a dark area to that room that a baby zombie could fit through. Zombies ”see” targets through walls, and some can target from up to 48 blocks away.
If you still think there is a bug happening, could you please attach a copy of the world? If it is too large to attach here you may use a file-sharing site and give the link.
