There are a few postings about this elsewhere in these forums; however, no one seems to have a definitive answer.

These are the most common suggestions:

Check for updates to Safari
Reboot
Disable or remove any extensions in Safari

And, from a 2021 question, here's a detailed list of suggestions that's marked 'Apple Recommended'.
