What our analysis found
Internxt VPN, used by 20,000 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 code is a coherent, first-party VPN client: the popup sets chrome.proxy to mode:'fixed_servers' pointing at Internxt's own node (:8348-8380),:2847 answers only proxy auth challenges (n.isProxy) with the Internxt JWT, and every network destination is an [domain withheld] subdomain ([domain withheld], [domain withheld]) plus [domain withheld] for displaying the user's own — no outbound data flow carrying browsing or page content exists anywhere in the three JS files. The content script exits unless the page origin is [domain withheld] and only receives a login token via postMessage (:36-70), so <all_urls> is unused in practice. Contradicting signals: the Risk Engine, our 0.78 ML score and chrome-stats are all manifest-derived ( is the minimum permission set any Chrome VPN needs), chrome-stats even cites a 'clipboard' permission the manifest does not request; corroborating-against-malice: Google trusted-publisher badge, VALID publisher email on [domain withheld], and feedback ('only one node', 'proxy password prompts') match exactly what the code does. The 'publisher flagged malicious' bit and the permhash cluster's come from IoC-feed notes ([domain withheld] WhatsApp spamware, Pulsedive compromised-extensions) whose payload shapes are absent from this build — I did not verify they ever referred to this ID, so I do not treat them as evidence either way. Hygiene, not findings: the proxy is scheme 'http' to a raw IP with the JWT as Basic proxy-auth, so the token travels cleartext, and after RESET_PROXY restores mode:'system' the onAuthRequired listener still has no challenger check and would hand that JWT to any proxy that asks; the origin test is a substring `includes` rather than equality. Held at likely_benign rather than false_positive only because ~380KB of vendored bundle was grepped rather than read line by line.
