En Brave Desktop entre las versiones 1.17 y 1.26.60, cuando el adblocking está habilitado y una extensión de navegador proxy está instalada, la funcionalidad CNAME adblocking emite peticiones DNS que usaban la configuración DNS del sistema en lugar de la configuración proxy de la extensión, resultando en una posible divulgación de información
