What our analysis found

FBV. Video downloader for Facebook showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It was last updated in June 2026.

Analyst notes

All code paths in,, and serve the declared purpose of downloading Facebook videos: fetches video URLs from Facebook's own `video_data_async` API using the page's own session token, downloads streams from [domain withheld] and muxes them locally with, and injects download buttons using the tooltip library bundled alongside the extension's own UI logic. Zero data is transmitted to any third party — every network request targets `[domain withheld]` or `[domain withheld]`. The CWS removal for `policy_violation` and the chrome-stats critical signals corroborate caution, but the policy violation almost certainly reflects Facebook's ToS on video downloading rather than malware behavior; the source contains no C2 infrastructure, no payloads, and no remote code loading. The ML score is inflated by the libraries bundled in (driving the high `js_innerhtml`, `js_appendchild`, and `js_exclamation` counts) and by the legitimate wasm-unsafe-eval CSP needed for.
