Context-Aware Verdict

HIGH
Risk Level
Trust Factors:

The extension has a decent user base of 3,000 users and a high rating of 4.8 stars from 21 reviews, suggesting positive user experiences. The developer domain kabila.app appears to be a legitimate cryptocurrency wallet service. The extension is actively maintained with version 2.2.33, indicating ongoing development support.

Concerns:

The extension requests excessive permissions that raise significant privacy and security concerns. The tabs permission allows monitoring and manipulation of all browser tabs, which goes beyond typical wallet functionality. Content scripts injected into all websites (https://*/*) create potential attack vectors for malicious actors. The broad host permissions include access to analytics services and localhost, expanding the attack surface unnecessarily. While the CSP policy shows extensive third-party integrations typical of crypto wallets, the combination of broad permissions with content script injection across all sites is concerning.

Recommendations:

Given the high-risk nature of this extension, consider running it in a separate Chrome profile to isolate it from your main browsing activities. Only install if you specifically need Kabila wallet functionality and trust the developer completely. Regularly review the extension's permissions and consider alternatives with more restrictive permission models. Monitor your browser activity for any unusual behavior after installation. Be particularly cautious when using this extension on sites containing sensitive financial or personal information, as the broad permissions could potentially expose this data.
