Wrong warning shown when visiting sites

Reported by ksumes...@gmail.com, Apr 23 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.86 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. visit the site www.keepvid.com
2. a Deceptive site warning is shown
3. now visit keepvid.com [without the www]
4.no warning is shown.

What is the expected behavior?
No warning should be shown because both address is of the same site and it does not contain any deceptive content

What went wrong?
A deceptive site warning show when using www.keepvid.com but not for keepvid.com

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 50.0.2661.86  Channel: stable
OS Version: ubuntu 16.04
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 21.0 r0

That website is not  mine,and I am not sure whether it is malicious or not .But I am confused about the behavior .Since both address point to the same site(points to same ip address,the address www.keepvid.com redirects to address keepvid.com),if google consider the site as malicious then warning should be shown on both case,or both address should be shown as safe.but in this case one address is shown as safe and other as malicious.So isn't it easy for a real malicious site to take advantage of this behavior ?

Thanks for reporting the issue. This is working as intended in Chromium since the corresponding sites are marked as-such in the blacklists. Nothing for Chromium to do here.
