It looks like a scam sites ad link. Close Cydia manually and see if it fixes it, if not respring or reboot and see if it still occurs. My guess would be a shady source that you installed

Fixed

I just got it fixed. Download Ifile from Cydia. you will be able to do that by quickly switching tabs when you open cydia. browse iFile and install. go to var/mobile/Library/Preferences. Do not delete anything with com.apple. Delete the file that was saved on the day that made it stuck on the search page. I forgot what it was called but mine was the first one on top. Problem solved.

I encountered this annoying web site redirect when I was using one of those YouTube downloading sites. Got stuck on it. Force closing the browser didn't help. I tried blocking it with AdBlock, but didn't help. Luckily I was using a 3rd party browser. So just removed and reinstalled the browser. So that's not necessarily good news for anyone that has this issue with browser in Cydia or if this happens in Safari.

But one thing I didnt try, go in airplane mode and see if you can close that stupid site this way.

Edit. Ah, see there was way to fix it as I was typing up my post.
