What our analysis found

MagneticProxy 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 was last updated in July 2026.

Analyst notes

The source code is entirely consistent with a legitimate proxy management extension. configures `chrome.proxy.settings` with user-supplied proxy credentials and provides those credentials only when `webRequest.onAuthRequired` fires from the matching proxy host — the standard, correct pattern for authenticated proxy extensions. The content script runs exclusively on `*://[domain withheld] and `*://[domain withheld], validates `e.origin === window.location.origin && e.source === window` before relaying messages, and routes everything to the publisher's background worker. No data leaves the extension except to the user-configured proxy server and to `[domain withheld] (Google's own connectivity check endpoint). The ML score (0.17), permhash cluster hit rate (30%), and chrome-stats scores are all explained by the permission set being shared with proxy-category malware — but the actual code behavior refutes malicious intent.
