This is not a vulnerability, it's a preload feature. 

If you have a proof-of-concept how it can be exploited in order to "Transffer Malware/Virus/Malicious software To User Server/User Computer", please file a separate bug with that information. Thank you!
thx

i will explain in separate message.

what a about user permission, this kind of method can harm the user when he didnt expect to ask a full connection with the specific server
additional if he copy and paste "bad" ip address/url  to address bar without know that google chrome will make full connection with the server(He Cannot See The Connection Through The Browser)
and without meaning to browse open that url it can exploit user unaware to that preload feature.
you need to warn the user regarding to that preload feature.
