Top Risks

• THREAT FEED: extension ID independently confirmed malicious by TPCI chrome-mal-ids — Hello Kitty Friends Live Wallpaper [adware] + malext.io malicious_extension_sentry (+2.5, capped).
• Uninstall URL hijack to owhit.com — classic monetization shell tracking user churn.
• Install URL hijack to owhit.com — opens 3rd-party page on install, confirms monetization intent.
• NewTab override with search permission: every new tab is a monetization surface.
• Privacy policy is Google's own policy (generic, not scoped to this extension) — admits data collection and 3rd-party sharing.

Evidence

• uninstall_url_hijack crx chrome.runtime.setUninstallURL → https://owhit.com/uninstall; 3rd-party monetization shell confirmed.
• install_url_hijack crx onInstalled opens https://owhit.com/hello-kitty-friends-live-wallpaper/; monetization shell pattern.
• newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab = index.html; every new tab captured by extension.
• generic_privacy_policy store Policy URL is Google account policy; scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true.
• free_webmail_dev store Developer email dermanseven32@gmail.com; numbered alias, no verified business domain.
• js_external_hosts crx 8 external hosts including owhit.com, chat.openai.com, instagram.com, netflix.com, youtube.com, x.com.
• no_csp manifest content_security_policy is null; MV3 has strict default but no explicit CSP declared.
• search_permission_plus_newtab manifest search permission combined with newtab override enables search provider manipulation and ad monetization.
• threat_feed_membership api Extension ID listed by TPCI chrome-mal-ids — Hello Kitty Friends Live Wallpaper [adware] + malext.io malicious_extension_sentry; score 6.01 -> 8.51 (+2.5 cap 2.5).

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Allows reading/modifying search provider; combined with newtab override amplifies search monetization risk.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab high Replaces every new tab with extension page; prime vector for ad injection and search hijacking.
