Top Risks

  • Free-webmail dev (gmail) with no developer name listed; identity not verifiable despite verified-publisher badge.
  • webRequest + declarativeNetRequestWithHostAccess + scripting + <all_urls> enables full request interception and script injection on every site.
  • No CSP combined with dynamic script creation and new Function() across multiple files allows runtime code execution.
  • Privacy policy admits data collection and third-party sharing but lacks retention details; scope is extension-specific.
  • Contacts ip-api.com (geolocation) and Google Analytics in addition to reactjs.org; 3 external hosts with no CSP.

Evidence

  • free_webmail_dev_no_name store developer_email=getvideohunter@gmail.com, developer_name empty; reputation floor elevated.
  • verified_publisher_featured store verified_publisher=true, is_featured_by_google=true; discounts applied but capped per invariants.
  • high_permissions_broad_host manifest webRequest + declarativeNetRequestWithHostAccess + scripting all paired with <all_urls> host permission.
  • no_csp crx content_security_policy=null; MV3 default CSP applies but no explicit hardening; amplifies code risks.
  • dynamic_script_and_function_constructor crx script_src_dynamic + function_constructor found in popup.js, offscreen.js, player.js.
  • privacy_third_party_sharing api Policy fetched; scope_extension=true, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true, retention=false.
  • external_hosts_ip_api crx js_external_hosts includes ip-api.com (geolocation), reactjs.org, www.google-analytics.com.
  • monetization_hit_analytics api threat_intel.monetization_hits: google-analytics.com (telemetry tier); category is VideoDownloader.
