What our analysis found

Free VPN for Chrome - VPN Proxy 1clickVPN, used by 9,000,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can read and change data on all websites and can observe network requests. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in October 2026.

Analyst notes

The extension is a legitimate VPN proxy manager. The code matches the stated purpose: it configures Chrome's proxy settings, fetches server lists, and handles authentication. Collected data (browsing URLs sent to Sentry for diagnostics, geo-IP lookups) falls under the CWS-disclosed categories 'Web history', 'User activity', and 'Location'. No unauthorized data exfiltration, credential theft, code injection, or obfuscation beyond normal bundling was found. The ML model likely overfits on the broad permissions and large minified bundle, which are typical for VPN extensions.
