Top Risks

• THREAT FEED: extension ID independently confirmed malicious by TPCI chrome-mal-ids — Easy Dark Mode [adware] + malext.io malicious_extension_sentry (+2.5, capped).
• Privacy policy admits data collection and third-party sharing but is not scoped to this extension (generic policy, +10 privacy).
• Uninstall URL hijack to easy-dark-mode.online/api/uninstall/ — tracks uninstall events and likely fingerprints users.
• Free-webmail developer (gmail) with no verified business identity elevates reputation risk.
• declarativeNetRequest + <all_urls> gives broad network intercept capability across every visited site.

Evidence

• uninstall_url_hijack crx chrome.runtime.setUninstallURL → https://easy-dark-mode.online/api/uninstall/ tracks user uninstalls.
• privacy_policy_generic_broad store Policy fetched; scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true — generic, not scoped.
• developer_identity store Developer email weaverstar048@gmail.com; free webmail, no verified business, no publisher badge.
• host_permissions_broad manifest host_permissions=[<all_urls>] + content_scripts on http/https — runs on every page.
• external_js_host crx Contacts fonts.cdnfonts.com (CDN) and easy-dark-mode.online; 2 distinct external registrable domains.
• no_csp manifest content_security_policy is null; MV3 default applies but no explicit hardening.
• declarativeNetRequest_with_all_urls manifest declarativeNetRequest + <all_urls> allows blocking/redirecting any network request.
• obfuscation_and_code_clean crx obfuscation_score=0.0, code_findings_raw empty, 4 JS files scanned — no malicious code detected.
• threat_feed_membership api Extension ID listed by TPCI chrome-mal-ids — Easy Dark Mode [adware] + malext.io malicious_extension_sentry; score 5.27 -> 7.77 (+2.5 cap 2.5).

Permissions Breakdown

• storage low Stores user preferences; low risk.
• declarativeNetRequest medium Can block/redirect network requests; moderate capability.
• <all_urls> (host_permission) high Content scripts run on every site; broad reach for a theme tool.
