The 'cnn.com' site is loading properly in the chrome browser but when loaded via JavFX WebView it is getting closed unexpectedly in a few seconds.

Test is passing up till jdk8u391 b03. Test is failing jdk8u391 b04 onwards (and on b05, and b06 as well) after the web kit upgrade in this release.

The issue is reproducible in macos 13, macos 12, windows 10, windows 11, and OEL 8.
