Top Risks

  • Privacy policy is Google's generic policy (scope_extension=false, admits data collection and third-party sharing) — scores maximum privacy risk.
  • Uninstall URL hijack redirects to excalidraw.com shared room — suspicious for a tab manager, warrants investigation.
  • new Function() constructor in bundled JS executes dynamic string code against window — code execution risk.
  • Developer uses free Gmail with no business domain; no verified publisher badge; low accountability.
  • history permission exposes full browsing history; combined with tabs gives broad user profiling capability.

Evidence

  • uninstall_url_hijack crx onUninstall redirects to excalidraw.com shared room — unrelated to stated tab-manager function.
  • privacy_policy_generic store Policy is Google account policy: scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true → +10.0 privacy.
  • function_constructor crx new Function(R[Pl])(window) in sidepanel/index.js executes dynamic strings against global window.
  • free_webmail_dev store Developer email wenxi303@gmail.com; no business domain; no verified publisher badge.
  • js_external_hosts crx Extension references excalidraw.com, fb.me, react.dev — 2 countries (IN, US).
  • history_permission manifest history permission grants full browsing history access paired with tabs.
  • no_csp manifest content_security_policy is null; MV3 has strict defaults but no explicit CSP declared.
  • is_featured_by_google store Extension carries Google Featured badge, providing partial reputation signal.

Permissions Breakdown

  • sidePanel low Renders extension in side panel; low abuse potential.
  • tabs medium Access to tab URLs, titles, and navigation; moderate capability.
  • tabGroups low Manage tab groups; limited scope.
  • favicon low Read tab favicons; low sensitivity.
  • storage low Local extension storage only; low risk.
  • history medium Full browsing history access; significant privacy surface.
