What our analysis found
Easy PDF Viewer, used by 50,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It comes from a publisher with 2 extensions and was last updated in June 2025.
Analyst notes
The extension is a legitimate search-engine override that changes the default search provider to [domain withheld] (disclosed in the description). It uses cookies and storage only to persist a first-party user identifier on its own domain; no third-party data exfiltration, obfuscation, or remote code execution was found. The low ML score (0.00) and the permissions being common across 5000+ extensions corroborate a benign intent. The web_accessible_resources exposing '*.json' is a minor hygiene issue but does not constitute malicious behavior.
