Top Risks

• Uninstall URL hijack to owhit.com — redirects user to 3rd-party page on removal.
• Install URL hijack to owhit.com — opens 3rd-party page on installation.
• New-tab override with search permission: monetization shell pattern.
• Privacy policy is Google's generic policy — does not scope to this extension at all.
• Free-webmail dev (gmail) with no verified identity or business website.

Evidence

• uninstall_url_hijack crx chrome.runtime.setUninstallURL -> https://owhit.com/uninstall; 3rd-party tracking on removal.
• install_url_hijack crx onInstalled opens https://owhit.com/ramadan-wallpaper; affiliate/traffic capture on install.
• newtab_override manifest chrome_url_overrides.newtab = index.html; overrides new-tab with extension page.
• search_permission manifest Declares 'search' permission enabling search-provider override.
• privacy_policy_generic store Policy URL is myaccount.google.com/privacypolicy — Google's own policy, not extension-specific.
• free_webmail_dev store Developer email bisarozbey4@gmail.com; no verified publisher; no business domain.
• js_external_hosts crx References chatgpt.com, instagram.com, netflix.com, youtube.com, x.com — wide external footprint.
• no_csp manifest content_security_policy is null; MV3 default CSP applies but no explicit extension CSP set.

Permissions Breakdown

• search medium Allows overriding default search provider — monetization risk.
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab high Replaces new-tab page entirely; classic monetization/traffic hijack surface.
