Top Risks

• THREAT FEED: extension ID independently confirmed malicious by TPCI chrome-mal-ids — Blackpink Anime Wallpapers Gameograf [adware] + malext.io malicious_extension_sentry (+2.5, capped).
• NewTab override replaces every new tab page — primary monetization surface with search override capability.
• Uninstall and install URL hijacks redirect to gameograf.com with UTM tracking on every install/uninstall event.
• bit.ly affiliate/cloaking hit in js_external_hosts — short-link redirector obscures final destination.
• mlionltd.github.io external JS host is an uncontrolled third-party GitHub Pages domain.

Evidence

• newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab = index.html; replaces every new tab with extension page.
• install_uninstall_url_hijack manifest Both onInstalled and uninstall URLs redirect to gameograf.com with UTM campaign tracking.
• affiliate_hit_bitly crx bit.ly listed in js_external_hosts; affiliate_hits confirms generic short-link/cloaking redirector.
• external_github_pages_host crx mlionltd.github.io in js_external_hosts — uncontrolled third-party hosting, takeover risk.
• dom_xss_sink crx innerHTML assigned from variable in popup.js with no CSP; DOM-XSS risk if input not sanitized.
• no_csp manifest content_security_policy is null; csp_present = false. MV3 defaults apply but no explicit hardening.
• verified_publisher store Verified publisher badge present; domain gameograf.com resolves, not throwaway.
• privacy_policy_adequate api Policy fetched; scope_extension=true, data_collection=true, retention=true, third_party_sharing=true.
• threat_feed_membership api Extension ID listed by TPCI chrome-mal-ids — Blackpink Anime Wallpapers Gameograf [adware] + malext.io malicious_extension_sentry; score 4.31 -> 6.81 (+2.5 cap 2.5).

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Allows reading and modifying search queries; relevant to NewTab/search override context.
• host_permission: https://api.gameograf.com/* low Scoped to developer's own API domain; narrow but enables outbound data transfer.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab medium Replaces every new tab page; high user-surface monetization vector.
