Context-Aware Verdict

MEDIUM
Overall Risk
Trust Factors:

The extension has a moderate user base of 10,000 users and maintains a decent 3.9-star rating from 14 reviews, suggesting basic functionality and user satisfaction. The developer is associated with hlabels.com, which appears to be a legitimate label printing service. The extension uses Manifest V3, indicating compliance with modern Chrome security standards.

Concerns:

The combination of contextMenus and activeTab permissions creates potential privacy risks. While contextMenus allows the extension to add right-click menu options, the activeTab permission grants access to read and modify content on any webpage when the extension is activated. For a label printing extension, these permissions seem reasonable but could be misused to capture sensitive information from web pages. The scripting permission further enables code injection capabilities, which increases the attack surface if the extension were compromised.

Recommendations:

This extension presents moderate risk due to its web page access capabilities. Consider running it in a separate Chrome profile if you frequently work with sensitive documents or financial information online. Only activate the extension when specifically needed for label printing tasks. Monitor your browsing behavior when the extension is active, and consider disabling it when not in use. The relatively small number of reviews suggests limited community vetting, so proceed with caution and report any suspicious behavior.
