What our analysis found
Cookie-Editor, used by 2,000,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Our code review reported 1 finding (1 high), led by other. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in February 2024.
Key findings
- high· other —The bundled manifest () includes host_permissions for <all_urls> and lacks sidePanel. The published CWS manifest summary (from live listing) declares sidePanel permission and does not list <all_urls>. This mismatch may indicate an outdated bundled version or a delayed update, and is itself a security concern.
Cookie-Editor is a legitimate open-source cookie management tool with 2M+ users and high ratings. All permissions are essential for its function: cookies API for editing, tabs for context, storage for settings, and <all_urls> to access cookies on any site. The code contains no network requests, eval, obfuscation, or data exfiltration. The ML model likely overfit on broad permissions and common UI patterns (innerHTML, appendChild). Third-party risk score and publisher reputation strongly corroborate benign intent.
