Pick Token Edge extension security report

Pick Token: Powerful Token Picker & JWT Inspector Pick Token is a sophisticated browser extension specifically designed to assist developers, security professionals, and anyone engaged with web applications that use authorization tokens for authentication. This extension excels at automatically extracting tokens such as Bearer tokens, JSON Web Tokens (JWTs), and various custom authentication tokens from network traffic, making the tasks of inspecting, analyzing, and debugging web APIs and Single Page Applications (SPAs) that utilize token-based authentication much more efficient. Leveraging advanced technologies like content scripts and background listeners, Pick Token captures authorization tokens seamlessly from multiple sources, including HTTP request headers and API responses. The extension features a modern and user-friendly popup interface that allows users to quickly view, copy, and inspect captured tokens. One of its core capabilities is decoding JWT payloads on the fly, providing deep insights into token details such as headers, payload content, claims, and expiration times. This proves invaluable when debugging OAuth flows, performing penetration tests on API endpoints, or simply managing session tokens during development and integration workflows. Pick Token operates unobtrusively behind the scenes by monitoring and intercepting network activity on any website you visit. It detects tokens contained within standardized HTTP headers like “Authorization” and can also recognize tokens embedded in custom API endpoints such as `/api/common/getToken`. Upon detecting a token, the extension alerts the user visually with badge notifications on its icon and securely stores the token data locally for later retrieval and review. Users have full control to open the extension popup at any time to examine available tokens, decode JWTs in real time, and copy tokens to their clipboard with options to remove standard prefixes like “Bearer” for convenience during testing or integration. Privacy is a key focus of Pick Token. It does not collect any personal data or transmit token information externally. All captured tokens remain stored locally on your device, ensuring your sensitive authentication data stays private and secure. Pick Token is designed to be an indispensable tool both for developers who need to explore and troubleshoot APIs, as well as for security auditors performing detailed token inspections during vulnerability assessments, guaranteeing that important tokens are never overlooked. Key Features: - Automatic Token Extraction: Effortlessly captures a variety of tokens including Bearer tokens, JWTs, and custom credentials extracted from HTTP request headers and API responses. - Real-Time JWT Inspection: Instantly decode JWTs within the extension’s popup interface to view their complete header, payload details, key claims, and expiry information for comprehensive analysis. - Clipboard Utility: Easily copy entire tokens or strip out prefixes such as “Bearer” before copying, streamlining testing and integration processes. - Visual Notifications: Badge alerts notify you immediately whenever tokens are detected and extracted in the currently active browser tab. - Flexible Capture Rules: Configure header names and prefix stripping to support non-standard or custom token formats as required by your applications. - Persistent Storage: Securely store tokens locally with per-tab persistence, so tokens remain accessible throughout your browsing session and beyond. - Broad Network Interception: Intercepts both modern `fetch` and traditional `XMLHttpRequest` (XHR) network calls to capture tokens from the widest range of web applications. How It Works: 1. Install the Pick Token extension directly from your browser’s extension marketplace. 2. Browse web applications or services normally—Pick Token automatically begins intercepting all network requests as pages load. 3. When an authorization token is present in a request header or API response, the extension automatically extracts and processes it. 4. The extension icon updates visually with a badge to notify you that a token has been captured and securely stores the token data associated with the respective browser tab. 5. Open the extension popup at any time to view a list of detected tokens, decode any JWT tokens in real time, and utilize additional analytical tools. 6. Use the built-in clipboard functionality to copy tokens quickly, with options to keep or remove common prefixes such as “Bearer” for ease of use in your workflows. 7. Customize token detection by adjusting header names or setting prefix stripping rules in the extension’s settings panel, enabling support for custom authentication schemes.
