In code review (v1.0.7)

Our reviewer read version 1.0.7 — the most recent version we have reviewed — and found no malicious behaviour. The version shown here has not been individually reviewed yet.

What our analysis found

MEOWSING, used by 50,000 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 March 2024.

Analyst notes

The extension's broad permissions are justified by its core functionality—displaying animated cats on any webpage. The identity permission is used for Google sign-in to support a paid subscription, and network interactions are limited to well-known services (Stripe for payments, publisher's site). No evidence of unauthorized data collection or exfiltration was found; user data is stored locally or synced via Chrome's built-in storage. The ML model scored this as low risk, and the third-party risk score flagged only permissions, not malicious behavior. Publisher is Google-trusted and featured, with a good user rating.
