Top Risks

• NewTab override replaces every new tab; paired with uninstall+install URL hijack to gameograf.com tracking endpoints.
• Privacy policy is Google's own generic policy — not scoped to this extension, admits data collection & 3rd-party sharing → Privacy pillar 10.
• Stale 16 months (>12mo) with NewTab+search combo; fan-content wallpaper shell pattern.
• JS external hosts include haberikra.com (unknown news/ad domain) alongside social/media giants — unusual for a wallpaper.
• MV3 + no CSP: default strict but no explicit policy declared; install/uninstall hijack indicates monetization intent.

Evidence

• newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab set to newtab.html — replaces every new tab for all 774 users.
• install_uninstall_hijack crx Both onInstalled and onUninstall redirect to gameograf.com with UTM tracking params.
• generic_privacy_policy store Privacy URL points to Google's own account policy; scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true.
• fan_content_shell store Title 'Squid Game 4K Wallpaper' is IP-branded fan-content NewTab shell — classic monetization pattern.
• external_hosts_anomaly crx JS contacts 9 external hosts incl. haberikra.com (unknown), chatgpt.com, netflix.com — broad for a wallpaper.
• stale_maintenance store Last updated May 2025; 16 months since update → maintenance score elevated (6-12mo band).
• no_csp manifest content_security_policy is null; MV3 default applies but no explicit extension CSP declared.
• featured_badge store is_featured_by_google=true provides partial reputation discount, but not verified publisher.

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Allows reading/modifying search queries; paired with NewTab override creates search monetization surface.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab high Replaces every new tab — high reach, primary monetization vector for wallpaper shells.
