Description of the issue:
One of the links I was looking into (ATEMPTED) to auto start a download on a malicious virus
How can this issue be reproduced?
I have the link to the website shown in the image, be aware it was blocked by my computer, I do not recommend going there
- Open brave
- Look up what I looked up
- Click the specific link and have no background in coding
- get jumped by an auto download
Expected result:
4. not getting jumped by an auto download
5. a way to report a malicious website from the browser
Brave Version( check About Brave
):
Additional Information:
PREFACES- yes I understand how bit.ly works (Brave auto downloads from there sometimes as well) and why people SHOULDNT have access to malicious reporting websites (see: wasted manpower), but still this felt absurd as a complete idiot that I have “shields up” in the standard mode and could have still gotten a virus
