Extension Details

Context-Aware Verdict

MEDIUM
Overall Risk
Trust Factors:

The extension appears to be incomplete or corrupted, as critical information like name, description, author, user count, and ratings are missing. This lack of basic metadata is highly concerning and suggests either a development version, corrupted installation, or potentially malicious extension attempting to hide its identity. The absence of developer information makes it impossible to verify legitimacy or reputation.

Concerns:
- Complete absence of identifying information (name, description, author) is a major red flag
- Missing user count and ratings prevent assessment of community trust
- Uses outdated Manifest V2, which has weaker security protections
- No visible permissions listed, but this could be due to incomplete data rather than actual safety
- Impossible to verify the extension's intended functionality or legitimacy
- Recent version number (2025.6.16.0) suggests active development, but without context this is meaningless
Recommendations:

Do not install or continue using this extension until you can verify its identity and purpose. If already installed, remove it immediately as it may be corrupted or malicious. Only install extensions from the official Chrome Web Store with clear descriptions, verified developers, and positive user reviews. If you need this specific functionality, find a well-documented alternative with transparent developer information and strong community trust indicators.

Findings

MEDIUM
Older Manifest Version
