Description of the issue: While i’m using the laptop as normal during the day, everything works as expected. The problem arises during the night (while my laptop is in standby) because when i wake up the laptop in the morning, Brave asks me to download a random file from a random website (see screenshot attached).
Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3. To be honest i have absolutely no idea on how to reproduce this, it happens randomly, like the first time it happened was 4 days ago, the second one tonight.
Actual Result:
As you can see, the Brave icon in the dock has a 1 and once i open it, this is what i see. Clearly i’ve never been to that website (it’s not in my history) so i don’t really understand how it’s possible that my laptop made a request while in standby to that website.
Reproduces how often: Until now, once every 4 days (i’m not switching off the laptop)
Operating System and Brave Version: Brave: 17.74.48, macOS: Sequoia 15.2
Additional Information: I’ve scanned the laptop with Malwarebytes but nothing was found (and all my software is updated to the latest version).
