What our analysis found
Header Editor Lite, used by 100,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can read and change data on all websites. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in October 2026.
Analyst notes
The extension is a legitimate developer tool for editing HTTP headers, redirects, and modifying responses. It uses sensitive permissions (debugger, host permissions) only for its declared functionality. No data exfiltration, tracking, or unauthorized network activities found. All network interactions are within Chrome's declarativeNetRequest and debugger APIs for request modification. No external analytics or data collection; cloud backup uses Chrome sync storage. The ML risk score is low (0.00), and the risk engine flagged permissions alone, not malicious behavior.
