What's the weirdest bug in a program you found in a project you didn't write? (programming.dev)

I thought of this after a recent bug I found. I use Vivaldi browser and recently it updated. After the update my mouse cursor was not visible when within the browser window. Other programs worked fine. I tried visual studio and steam and epic game store all had my mouse, Vivaldi didn't.

I closed all instances of Vivaldi via task nanager(was unable to click the x) and restarted it. That fixed the bug and I haven't been able to replicate so I don't have anything to submit for a bug report. Just a really strange thing.

What have been your weirdest bugs?

Why 2TB? Why during startup? Why does cryptography free the heap? Why is the data stored off-site?

So many questions!

Loads the entire db table into memory. The login step is configurable but the app loads the table before checking for it. Site is in BFE and other sites need access to the database so it is in corp.
