Option no_connect_privileged_ports extends to web seed

qBittorrent & operating system versions

qBittorrent: 4.4.3.1 (64 bit) OS: Widnows 10 Qt: 5.15.4 Libtorrent: 1.2.16.0

What is the problem?

I think that this is a bit wrong, since torrent trackers work on standard HTTP (80) and HTTPS (443) ports. And for the web seed to work, you either have to disable this setting or change the configuration of the web server.

The option is from libtorrent. It would be best to also file an issue upstream: https://github.com/arvidn/libtorrent/issues

I'm also hitting this issue today. According to @arvidn here: https://github.com/arvidn/libtorrent/issues/6959#issuecomment-1279994457 It seems that it's because qBit used port-filter internally rather than the intended option no_connect_privileged_ports?
