A few Techy Folks on one of the Apple Discussion Pages thinks that since this seems to be System-Wide in a Few OSs, that this may be something that Apple meant purposefully... Heaven knows what though.
Got a tip for us?

Someone one the Apple-board suggested this:
1)Enable the develop menu from Safari->Preferences->Advanced->Show Develop menu in menu bar (a checkbox)
2)From the newly visible Develop menu bar dropdown, enable Disable Local File Restrictions
Anybody tried this?

I even tried to restart to see if it was working but it doesn't
New Security Updates and still no Safari Fix...

Apple security releases - Apple Support
This document lists security updates and Rapid Security Responses for Apple software.
This won't be fixed until they address it in Catalina Safari 14.0.3 or above, if ever released. I was hoping there would be a Safari update with this Security Release like the last one. Still waiting for my audio interface peeps to update their drivers for BS, then I guess farewell to the often nasty kitty CAT, and hello to the bugs in BS... such is modern techie life. ? Anyone know if BS Safari has this issue?
Safari 14.0.3 is sure to arrive any time now as it's already in Big Sur. For some reason, Apple tends to release the Safari patches a bit after the related security and OS updates.
Hey... you must be the same guy I just talked with somewhere else in the Cosmos!
Yup, same techie, same problem, different moniker, sister discussion on Apple Communities. Still looking for an answer if this bug exists in BS? Anyone?
Right you are, Safari 14.0.3 for Catalina just showed up. I will wait a day for the two to install. Anyone who has the courage, please let us know if the Safari Update fixes this longstanding issue. ?
Ooooorrrr... makes your computer a Brick like Two Safaris ago...
Anyone that installs these patches in Mojave, please post here.
Nowhere, just super cautious about installing anything the moment it shows up.
Me too... the patch a few back really slowed down my Computer. Pain in the arse... and then the next one ate the .weblocs.
Confirmed. Safari 14.0.3 fixed this issue that started with 14.0.1. Thanks to all who hassled Apple on this.
Fixed for me too ?
Safari 14.0.3 - Catalina 10.15.7
