Top Risks

• THREAT FEED: extension ID independently confirmed malicious by TPCI chrome-mal-ids — Blue Box Anime Wallpaper New Tab [adware] + malext.io malicious_extension_sentry (+2.5, capped).
• Privacy policy is Google's generic account policy — does not scope to this extension; admits data collection and third-party sharing (Privacy +10).
• NewTab override + uninstall/install URL hijack to gameograf.com — classic monetization shell pattern.
• bit.ly affiliate/cloaking hit in js_external_hosts; operator cluster dev_email has 21 sibling extensions.
• No CSP on MV3 extension with innerHTML DOM sink in popup.js — DOM-XSS risk.

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Allows query of Chrome search API; typical for NewTab but enables search override behavior.
• host_permissions: https://api.gameograf.com/* low Scoped to developer's own API domain only.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab medium Replaces every new tab page — high reach, monetization vector.
