search icon in URLbar should be a local resource #14653
Comments
i tested it on mac so may be a windows specific issue breakage |
We'll need to test this with a large profile per @kjozwiak |
Verified icons using engine go key (from about:preferences#search), all seemed to load fine except for searx (:x). Reproduced by @srirambv |
@LaurenWags is that on windows? |
@LaurenWags also what's the error in the console? |
@diracdeltas this is on macOS but was reproduced on Win. Doesn't appear to be anything in the console: |
@LaurenWags thanks - looked like there was a console error in your first screenshot (red x) |
so there is, interesting. the console error isn't reproducing now but will try a few more times and update here if I get something @diracdeltas |
i think i know what the issue is |
fix #14653 for some reason, renaming the searx favicon to something that doesn't have 'searx' in the filename makes it reappear Test Plan: 1. make a packaged build 2. open brave 3. hit ':x' in urlbar. searx favicon should appear.

we discovered while running wireshark on Tor tabs that the search icon in the urlbar (google, duckduckgo) is loaded remotely when the user starts a search from the urlbar. for privacy it's best to load it as a local resource.
STR:
open browser console and inspect the urlbar icon
hit any search shortcut, ex: ':g' for google
notice that the favicon for the search engine is loaded from a remote website
