[Bug] Cannot download PDFs from GitHub

[bluecmd]

Describe the bug

Hello,

I'm unable to download PDF files from GitHub when using the DDG app specifically.

How to Reproduce

• Navigate to any PDF hosted on GitHub. E.g. https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/master/test/pdfs/ArabicCIDTrueType.pdf
• Press the "..." next to the branch name.
• Press "Download"
• Observe that nothing happens

If you do the same steps in Firefox on Android the PDF is downloaded.

Expected behavior

The PDF file is downloaded

Environment

- DDG App Version: 5.175.1
- Device: Pixel 6 Pro
- OS: Android 14

Can i resolve this issue?

I still can't download the linked PDF in the latest DDG Browser, so I would say no. Are you able to download it using the reproduce instructions?

In my view this is due to GitHub's content security policy. They do not want us to inject code to retrieve the pdf in the blob. Doesn't work with my FREE Bowser either.

This is solved in 5.209.2.

No, it is not solved. Still nothing happens when clicking "Download" as described above
