This isn't a website asking for permission. It's the browser exe itself.
This seems like the bare minimum permissions for a web browser.
Windows asks for this permission when a program needs to accept unsolicited incoming network requests. Not something a browser normally requires.
Unless you're doing a P2P video/voice call.
