Version 12.6.1.4 View in Chrome Web Store
The extension has a perfect 5.0 rating, though this is based on only 1 review which limits reliability. With 10,000 users, it has moderate adoption but lacks transparency regarding the developer identity and company information. The absence of developer details raises questions about accountability and support. The extension appears to be related to Jabber/XMPP communication services based on its name.
The primary concern is the lack of developer transparency - no author or company information is provided, making it difficult to verify legitimacy. While the contextMenus permission is relatively benign, it allows the extension to modify right-click menus which could potentially be used for social engineering attacks. The single rating review provides insufficient feedback to assess real-world performance and user satisfaction. The missing last updated date prevents assessment of whether the extension receives regular security updates.
Given the medium risk level, consider running this extension in a separate Chrome profile if you need its functionality. Before installation, research the extension further to identify the actual developer and verify its legitimacy through official Jabber/Cisco channels if it's related to their services. Monitor the extension's behavior after installation and be cautious of any unexpected context menu additions. Consider alternative extensions with better developer transparency and more comprehensive user reviews if available.
