Top Risks

• Privacy policy is Google's own policy — not scoped to this extension; admits data collection and 3rd-party sharing (+10 privacy).
• Uninstall URL hijack to gameograf.com UTM link and install URL hijack — classic monetization shell signals.
• NewTab override + search permission = high-reach monetization surface on every new tab opened.
• No CSP (csp_present=false) with innerHTML DOM-XSS sinks in popup.js and calendar.js elevates XSS risk.
• Rating of 1 and no developer name listed reduces accountability.

Evidence

• uninstall_url_hijack manifest setUninstallURL targets https://gameograf.com/?utm_source=gameograf — 3rd-party redirect on uninstall.
• install_url_hijack manifest onInstalled opens https://gameograf.com/?utm_source=install — monetization redirect on install.
• newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab = newtab.html; replaces every new tab for all users.
• generic_privacy_policy store Privacy URL is Google's global policy (myaccount.google.com/privacypolicy); scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true.
• dom_xss_sink_no_csp crx innerHTML from variable in popup.js and calendar.js with csp_present=false — DOM-XSS risk unmitigated.
• low_rating store Rating=1.0; no developer name provided; 358 installs — low accountability.
• verified_publisher store verified_publisher=true for gameograf.com; domain resolves, looks_throwaway=false — partial credit.
• no_developer_name store developer_name is empty string; reduces accountability signal.

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Can manipulate search provider; paired with newtab override amplifies monetization risk.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab medium Replaces every new tab — high-reach surface for ad/redirect monetization.
• host_permissions: https://api.gameograf.com/* low Scoped to dev's own API domain; limited blast radius.
