I don't know the language in the screenshot and can't tell you what the actual problem is but it is surely not that chmod +x is missing on the desktop file. I checked some desktop files on my system and they all didn't have it.

Are you using vscodium-fhs? Can you reproduce this with xdg-open https://example.com?

Firefox shortcut by default has execution permissions:

I can't reproduce this with xdg-open, it only happens in vscode/ium-fhs.

I think the problem is generally related to the fhs, similar to #160923

xdg.portal = { enable = true; xdgOpenUsePortal = true; };

Remember to restart after adding this, learnt that the hard way.
