🟡 MEDIUM RISK — review
Top Risks
- proxy permission routes ALL browser traffic through attacker-controlled routekeeper.space — extreme data interception risk.
- Gmail developer with no name, no verified publisher; free-webmail floor applied (reputation 8.0).
- Privacy policy is Google's own policy — not scoped to this extension; data_collection+third_party_sharing admitted without extension context: +10 privacy.
- Install URL hijack redirects to routekeeper.space on install; external JS also contacts app.myxavpn.pro and t.me.
- Only 78 installs with high-tier proxy permission — tail attack surface / supply-chain risk.
Evidence
- proxy_permission manifest proxy declared — can redirect 100% of browser traffic to routekeeper.space or app.myxavpn.pro.
- install_url_hijack crx onInstalled opens https://routekeeper.space/ — third-party URL hijack confirmed.
- external_js_hosts crx JS contacts: app.myxavpn.pro, routekeeper.space, t.me, cloudflare-dns.com, dns.google — 5 hosts, 4 countries.
- privacy_policy_generic store Policy URL is Google's own account policy; scope_extension=false, data_collection=true, third_party_sharing=true.
- free_webmail_no_devname store Developer email ezagirace763@gmail.com, developer_name empty, no verified publisher, no featured badge.
- small_install_high_perm api install_perm_anomaly: 78 installs + proxy permission = high tail-attack-surface risk.
- geo_diversity crx JS hosts span CA, NL, RU, US — 4 countries; +1.5 network per v3.3 rule 14.
- csp_absent manifest No CSP declared; MV3 has strict default so no v2 +2.0 penalty, but noted.
Permissions Breakdown
- proxy high Proxy can redirect all browser traffic through attacker-controlled endpoints — critical capability.
- https://routekeeper.space/* high Unknown third-party domain; extension opens install hijack to this host.
- https://cloudflare-dns.com/* low Legitimate DoH resolver; consistent with VPN/privacy use case.
- https://dns.google/* low Legitimate DoH resolver; consistent with VPN/privacy use case.
