MPRC for Chrome

The extension has extremely limited adoption with only 5 users, which raises significant concerns about its legitimacy and testing. While it maintains a 4.3 rating, the small user base makes this metric unreliable. The lack of developer information, company details, and missing last updated date creates transparency issues that undermine trustworthiness.

The most critical issue is the <all_urls> host permission combined with nativeMessaging capability, creating a dangerous combination that allows the extension to access all websites and communicate with native applications on your system. This permission set is excessive for most legitimate use cases and could enable data exfiltration, credential theft, or system compromise. The contextMenus permission, while less concerning individually, adds another attack vector when combined with the broad access rights.

The extension's name "MPRC for Chrome" provides no clear indication of its purpose, making it difficult to assess whether these permissions are justified. The extremely low user count suggests this may be a test extension or potentially malicious software with limited distribution.

Do not install this extension due to its high-risk permission combination and lack of transparency. If you must use it, run it in a completely isolated Chrome profile with no access to sensitive accounts or data. Consider seeking alternative extensions with similar functionality from established developers with proper documentation and reasonable permission requests.
