What our analysis found

Notebook LM, used by 10,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can read and change data on all websites and can inject scripts into pages. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in August 2026.

Analyst notes

The extension is a legitimate productivity tool that enhances NotebookLM by allowing users to import links, YouTube videos, and other content into their notebooks. All network requests go to first-party domains: [domain withheld] (using the user's authenticated session) and [domain withheld] (for anonymous usage analytics). No credentials or personal data are exfiltrated. Broad permissions and content scripts are necessary for core features like link picking, screenshot capture, and YouTube integration. The published manifest summary shows an 'externally_connectable' key that is absent in the bundled manifest; this appears to be an outdated listing description rather than a security issue, as the extension uses content scripts for cross-domain messaging instead. The ML risk score and risk-engine flags are due to large bundled code size and standard DOM manipulation patterns, not malicious intent.
