It looks like the favorite icon is sometimes not updated when navigating history. This is probably a duplicate of Bug #747: Website favorite icons aren't updated when navigating history, although the various reasons why a favorite icon might not be displayed probably have disparate root causes.
By the way, the critical bug designation is reserved for security bugs and crashes.

I don't understand what this has to do with favorites a.k.a bookmarks. The site icons should be updated on each visit nonethless of whether they're favorited or not.
Apologize for setting critical priority btw.

There is no connection between favorite icons and bookmarks.
Website icons are called favorite icons (or favicons) in the HTML spec.

Some browsers call bookmarks "favorites", but Privacy Browser never does that.
