| declarativeNetRequest | Permission | | This permission allows the extension to define rules to block, redirect, or modify network requests. Rated Critical because it can control all network traffic, potentially blocking security updates or redirecting to malicious sites. |
| proxy | Permission | | This permission allows the extension to control the browser's proxy settings. Rated Critical because it can route all traffic through potentially malicious proxies, enabling man-in-the-middle attacks and traffic monitoring. |
| scripting | Permission | | This permission allows injection and execution of JavaScript on any webpage. Rated Critical because it can modify page content, steal sensitive data, and inject malicious code into any site the extension has access to. |
| webRequest | Permission | | This permission enables the extension to monitor and analyze all web requests made by the browser. Rated Critical because it can observe all network traffic including sensitive data, track browsing behavior, and gather authentication tokens. |
| webRequestBlocking | Permission | | This permission allows the extension to intercept, modify, or block any web request in real-time before it reaches its destination. Rated Critical because it can modify sensitive data (like passwords, credit cards) before encryption, redirect traffic to malicious sites, or block security updates. |
| *://*/* | Host | | Broad host access — the extension can read/modify content on every website. |
| <all_urls> | Host | | Broad host access — the extension can read/modify content on every website. |
