Risk Level:
High
Recommendation:
🚫 BLOCK
Top Risks
- Operator cluster of 13 extensions sharing same dev email/CSP-host fingerprint — coordinated shell operation.
- Privacy policy is Google's own policy (not scoped to this extension), admits data collection and 3rd-party sharing — scores as generic/deceptive.
- Uninstall and install URL hijacks detected; installs open web.whatsapp.com on install.
- Brand impersonation: extension links Google's privacy policy while not being affiliated with Google.
- 10 external wascript.com.br/watools.com.br backend hosts with no CSP; no visibility into data exfiltration.
Evidence
- operator_cluster api sibling_count=12 sharing identical dev_email, install_url, csp_host_set — coordinated cluster.
- privacy_policy_generic crx Policy URL is Google's account privacy page; scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true.
- uninstall_url_hijack crx chrome.runtime.setUninstallURL() called; install_url_hijack=true, opens web.whatsapp.com on install.
- brand_impersonation store brand_mention.is_impersonation=true (Google brand); developer domain extensao.store not affiliated.
- js_external_hosts crx 10 external wascript.com.br/watools.com.br hosts; no CSP on MV3 extension contacting multiple backends.
- function_constructor crx new Function() constructor found in bundled JS — dynamic code execution risk.
- dom_sink_innerhtml_userctrl crx innerHTML sink with user-controlled variable; no CSP present amplifies XSS risk.
- install_count_low store Only 15 installs; part of a 13-extension cluster — likely seeding phase of a coordinated campaign.
Permissions Breakdown
- unlimitedStorage low Allows unbounded local storage; low direct harm but enables large local data accumulation.
- storage low Standard key-value storage; low risk in isolation.
- alarms low Scheduling API; low risk, used for background tasks.
- tabs medium Can read tab URLs and titles across sessions; moderate risk.
- https://web.whatsapp.com/* medium Scoped host access to WhatsApp Web; content scripts can read messages and DOM.
