🟡 MEDIUM RISK — review
Top Risks
- NewTab override by wallpaper extension with operator cluster of 16 dev-email siblings — monetization shell pattern.
- Privacy policy URL fetch failed (ConnectionError); no policy content evaluated — treated as no policy.
- Uninstall and install URL hijacks redirect to gameograf.com with UTM tracking on every install/uninstall.
- operator_cluster sibling_count=4 compound fingerprint matches indicate mass-produced extension farm.
- No developer name listed; verified publisher badge present but domain ~5.5yr old with 265 certs.
Evidence
- newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab set to newtab.html — wallpaper extension captures every new tab.
- uninstall_url_hijack crx setUninstallURL → https://gameograf.com/?utm_source=extension&utm_medium=install
- install_url_hijack crx onInstalled opens https://gameograf.com/?utm_source=extension&utm_medium=install
- privacy_policy_fetch_failed api fetch_error:ConnectionError on https://api.gameograf.com/gameograf-privacy-policy.html → score +10.
- operator_cluster api sibling_count=4 compound; dev_email dimension=16 siblings under support@gameograf.com.
- dom_xss_sinks crx innerHTML user-controlled in js/popup.js and js/calendar.js; no CSP to mitigate.
- no_csp manifest content_security_policy is null; MV3 default applies but dom sinks increase XSS surface.
- no_developer_name store developer_name is empty string; verified_publisher=true but no display name increases opacity.
Permissions Breakdown
- search medium Allows reading/modifying search queries; paired with newtab override elevates risk.
- host_permissions: https://api.gameograf.com/* medium Scoped to dev API; enables outbound data exfil to developer-controlled server.
- chrome_url_overrides.newtab medium Replaces every new tab — high-reach monetization surface for a wallpaper app.
