Top Risks

• Uninstall AND install URL hijack both route to gameograf.com — classic monetization shell pattern.
• Privacy policy URL timed out on fetch; treated as unavailable — no data handling disclosure.
• NewTab override with 'search' permission and 9 diverse external JS hosts including ad-linkable domains.
• No developer name declared; extension title 'Free Fire' is a game brand name but no impersonation confirmed.
• Stale 15 months with newtab override and no visible privacy controls — persistent user exposure.

Evidence

• install_url_hijack crx onInstalled opens https://gameograf.com/?utm_source=install — 3rd-party monetization redirect.
• uninstall_url_hijack crx setUninstallURL points to https://gameograf.com/?utm_source=gameograf — uninstall tracking.
• privacy_policy_fetch_failed api privacy_policy_classification.fetched==false due to ReadTimeout; scored as no policy (+10.0).
• newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab set to newtab.html; combined with 'search' permission = monetization pattern.
• js_external_hosts_diverse crx 9 external hosts: chatgpt.com, gameograf.com, youtube.com, instagram.com, netflix.com, reddit.com, x.com, google.com, chrome.google.com.
• no_developer_name store developer_name is empty string; reduces accountability.
• maintenance_stale store 15 months since last update — falls in 12-24mo band (+6.0 maintenance).
• verified_publisher store verified_publisher==true but capped at -1.0 discount due to months_since_update>18 (invariant 0c/0E).

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Allows interaction with Chrome search API; paired with newtab override raises monetization concern.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab medium Replaces new-tab page; primary mechanism for traffic/search monetization in this extension.
