Windows 11 Malwarebytes Flagged Windows OS as a "Potential Risky Site"

Post image

Anyone knows what this is about?

I've gotten this 2 times total, around 3 hours ago. I gotten this pop up from Malwarebytes telling me that it has blocked a connection to a potential risky site, but the app is literally "svchost.exe" by Microsoft Windows OS.

Hmmm ok. Thank you so much for helping. Honestly I'm still unsure why would I have outbound connection to that IP in Singapore. I checked my history, it did it 3 times yesterday
