Additional Information:
I have searched some report regarding this issue and found first report, second report, third report, fourth report, and around 10 more reports about same issue.

The only solution so far is disabling Bitwarden autofill which is not a good solution as this issue doesn’t exist on other browsers. What is Brave developers doing after all of these reports?
