Top Risks
- Critical CVE-2021-23358 in bundled underscore@1.8.3 (arbitrary code execution) + high CVE in same lib, no CSP amplifier applies.
- Five moderate jQuery XSS CVEs in bundled jquery@1.7.2 running inside Gmail context with no CSP protection.
- Privacy policy admits data collection and third-party sharing but is NOT scoped to this extension.
- Content scripts inject into Gmail (mail.google.com) giving read/write access to email content.
- Install URL hijack opens mail.google.com on install; 12 external JS hosts referenced (legacy source comments in old jQuery/underscore).
Evidence
- critical_cve_underscore crx underscore@1.8.3 has CVE-2021-23358 (critical, ACE) and CVE-2026-27601 (high, DoS); both unfixed in bundled version.
- multiple_medium_cves_jquery crx jquery@1.7.2 has 5 moderate XSS CVEs; no CSP present; jquery is DOM-manipulation lib — v2 amplifier applies.
- no_csp manifest content_security_policy is null (MV3 default strict but no explicit CSP declared); amplifies jquery CVE risk.
- privacy_policy_unscoped_with_3rd_party_sharing store Policy fetched; scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true → +10.0 per v3.5 rule D.
- function_constructor_findings crx new Function() used in jquery.js and underscore.js; +2.5 code quality; dom_sink_innerhtml also present.
- install_url_hijack store onInstalled opens https://mail.google.com/ — intent appears benign (product operates on Gmail) but flagged.
- geo_diversity api JS hosts in 4 countries (CA, IE, IN, US); category not VPN/etc. — +1.5 network.
- no_developer_name store developer_name is empty string; +1.0 reputation; email domain resolves and looks legitimate.
