What our analysis found

Avira Safe Shopping, used by 7,000,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can read and change data on all websites, can inject scripts into pages and can observe network requests. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in September 2026.

Extension from reputable anti-virus publisher Avira. The code implements redirection tracking for shopping coupon injection, using postMessage to communicate with the extension background; all destinations appear first‑party (Avira domains) and the collected data (location, web history, website content) matches the CWS‑disclosed privacy collections. The bundled includes a large assert polyfill and bundled utilities that inflate ML regex counters (e.g., js_xmlhttprequest, js_innerhtml) without representing malicious behaviour. A listing‑manifest permissions mismatch (missing in published summary) is a hygiene issue, not malware.
