🟡 MEDIUM RISK — review
Top Risks
- Brand impersonation: uses Netflix name/brand without being affiliated with Netflix.
- Privacy policy is Google's generic account policy — not scoped to this extension at all.
- Extension abandoned for 44 months (last updated Oct 2022); maintenance score 10/10.
- Free-webmail developer (gmail.com) with no verified business identity.
- Content script runs on all netflix.com pages with tabs permission — session-data exposure risk if ever compromised.
Evidence
- brand_impersonation store brand_mention.is_impersonation=true; confirmed_owner=false; brands_mentioned=[netflix]; developer_domain=gmail.com.
- generic_privacy_policy store Policy URL is Google account policy; scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true — D(iv) rule: +10.0.
- maintenance_abandoned store months_since_update=44; >36 months → maintenance pillar 10.0.
- free_webmail_dev store sarequlbasar@gmail.com; no business website; reputation floor applies (>=7.5).
- no_csp manifest content_security_policy=null; MV3 so no +2.0 network penalty, but inline-execution risk unmitigated.
- external_hosts_ko_fi crx js_external_hosts includes ko-fi.com (donation link); no bad-host hits confirmed.
- no_code_findings crx code_findings_raw=[]; obfuscation_score=0.0; 5 JS files scanned cleanly.
- stale_mv3_triple_fingerprint store >24mo stale + MV3 (no CVEs, so v2 triple-stale only applies to MV2); no CVEs; partial stale signal only.
Permissions Breakdown
- storage low Stores local extension settings; no cross-origin data exposure.
- tabs medium Can read tab URLs/titles; limited risk but broader than activeTab.
- *://*.netflix.com/ (host) medium Content access scoped only to netflix.com; matches stated function.
