What our analysis found

CapMonster Cloud — automated captcha solver, used by 20,000 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 October 2026.

Analyst notes

The extension is an automated captcha solver and uses broad permissions (cookies, webRequest, scripting, declarativeNetRequest) necessary for its core functionality of interacting with captcha iframes on any website. All outbound network traffic goes to the publisher's own API domains ([domain withheld]) or standard third-party services (Amplitude analytics, Sentry error reporting) that are consistent with a legitimate extension. Telemetry is minimal ( events, setting changes with masked client key) and falls under the publisher's disclosed 'User activity' data collection. No evidence of unauthorized data exfiltration, credential theft, or malicious code injection was found. The ML model's low risk score (0.00) and the publisher's trusted status corroborate this conclusion.
