Risk Score

Risk Level:
Medium
Recommendation:
🟡 MEDIUM RISK — review
Top Risks
- proxy permission routes ALL browser traffic through developer-controlled servers with no accountability.
- Privacy policy URL returns fetch error; policy effectively non-existent and unverifiable.
- Gmail developer email with no developer name and no verified publisher badge.
- External JS host myxavpn.com is the same domain as the inaccessible privacy policy — single unverified operator controls both.
- VPN/proxy tunneling all traffic via unknown infrastructure in Finland with no transparency on data handling.
Evidence
- proxy_permission manifest proxy declared — redirects all browser network traffic through extension-controlled endpoints.
- privacy_policy_fetch_failed api https://myxavpn.com/privacy/ returned HTTPError; policy content unverifiable, scored as not fetched.
- free_webmail_developer store Developer email silviaferr79@gmail.com is Gmail; no developer name listed; no verified publisher.
- external_js_host crx js_external_hosts: [myxavpn.com] — same domain as privacy policy; single unverified operator.
- no_csp manifest content_security_policy is null; MV3 applies default CSP so no v2 network penalty, but no explicit policy.
- geo_diversity_low api Single JS host country: FI (Finland). No geo-diversity penalty triggered (count=1).
- maintenance_3_6mo store months_since_update=6; falls in 3-6 month band (+1.5).
- no_code_findings crx code_findings_raw empty, obfuscation_score=0.0; code quality pillar = 0.
Permissions Breakdown
- proxy high Routes all browser traffic through attacker-controlled servers; core VPN function but highest-impact permission.
- storage low Local data persistence for settings; low standalone risk.
