Rating: 4.2 ★ (95 ratings)

Context-Aware Verdict

LOW

Overall Risk

Trust Factors:

The extension appears to be a browser theme from Atavi, a known theme provider. With a 4.2-star rating from 95 reviews, it shows reasonable user satisfaction. The extension name "Туманные Горы" (Misty Mountains in Russian) aligns with its theme purpose. However, the lack of visible user count and last updated information makes it difficult to assess current maintenance and popularity.

Concerns:

The primary concern is the use of Manifest Version 2, which has weaker security protections compared to the newer Manifest V3 standard. While this doesn't pose immediate danger for a theme extension, it represents outdated technology that may become unsupported. The absence of visible permissions, host permissions, and scripts suggests this is likely a simple theme with minimal functionality, which is appropriate for its stated purpose.

Recommendations:

This extension poses minimal security risk as it appears to be a straightforward browser theme with no concerning permissions or scripts. Users can safely install this extension for cosmetic purposes. However, consider looking for similar themes that have been updated to Manifest V3 for better long-term security and compatibility. Monitor for updates from the developer, and if the extension becomes abandoned or stops receiving updates, consider switching to a more actively maintained alternative.
