What our analysis found
Backup Chats for wa showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It comes from a publisher with 4 extensions and was last updated in August 2026.
Analyst notes
The extension's core behaviour exactly matches its stated purpose: reads WhatsApp Web's internal store models, assembles chat history locally, and passes it via window.postMessage to the content script, which packages it with and saves it to disk — no chat content ever leaves the user's device. The only external network call is to [domain withheld] for subscription-status checks using a locally-generated UUID (app=18, uid=<uuid>) and, only on explicit user action, order_id + email for licence activation — a standard freemium licensing pattern. The ML score of 0.83 is driven entirely by bundled open-source library characteristics (2MB+ from jszip, lodash, moment, webextension-polyfill, Vue reactive system) and DOM-manipulation patterns inherent to an HTML-export feature; the two 'eval' hits in the content script are API-metadata entries in the webextension-polyfill, not actual eval() calls. The third-party 'removed-from-store' signal raises the risk indicator but the code itself contains no malicious payload.
