Top Risks

• Uninstall URL hijack to owhit.com — classic traffic-monetization shell pattern.
• Install URL hijack to owhit.com — tracks installs and redirects users on install.
• Privacy policy is Google's own account policy, not scoped to this extension; admits data collection and 3rd-party sharing.
• New-tab override with search permission and free-webmail dev identity — high monetization risk.
• 8 external JS hosts (YouTube, Netflix, Instagram, X, ChatGPT, etc.) embedded in a wallpaper extension with no declared host permissions.

Evidence

• uninstall_url_hijack crx chrome.runtime.setUninstallURL targets https://owhit.com/uninstall — 3rd-party redirect on uninstall.
• install_url_hijack crx onInstalled opens https://owhit.com/bluey-wallpaper — 3rd-party redirect on install.
• newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab = index.html; every new tab served by extension.
• generic_privacy_policy store PP URL is Google account policy (scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true).
• free_webmail_dev store Developer email demorelmert101@gmail.com with no verified publisher or business domain.
• external_js_hosts crx 8 external hosts in JS: owhit.com, chatgpt.com, instagram.com, netflix.com, youtube.com, x.com, etc.
• search_permission_newtab_combo manifest search permission + newtab override is a known search-monetization fingerprint.
• csp_absent_mv3 manifest content_security_policy is null; no explicit CSP declared for extension pages.

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Can override search provider behavior; paired with newtab override raises monetization risk.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab high Replaces every new tab with extension page; high-traffic monetization surface.
