Indeed. A simple way to reproduce the issue is to validate by direct 
input the following:

p { font-size: 1m }

The error message links to
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/nullfonts.html#propdef-font-size

Apparently, the validator is generating URLs but a crucial parameter or 
variable has an undefined or void value, resulting in 
“http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/null” instead of a proper prefix.

They have. They still work at

http://www.css-validator.org

I have no idea of what that service might be. I found it by googling for 
“css validator”.
