There is a thread currently on here that if you have media preview turned on, automatically downloads a file. Thread is Here.
This could be a huge security issue because if a bad actor put a payload in a file that just auto downloads, some people might just open it not knowing what it is.
Not sure where to post bugs, so I figured this might be the place for now.

I was taking a look at the same issue earlier in another thread.
Both of the issues are from CBS news.
Was yours trying to download a playlist file as well?
Edit to add link to previous issue:
