| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| declarativeNetRequestWithHostAccess | Permission | | This permission combines network request modification with host permissions. Rated Critical because it can modify requests for specific domains, potentially targeting sensitive websites with precise attack rules. |
| <all_urls> | Host | | Broad host access — the extension can read/modify content on every website. |
| Dangerous Permission Combination: cookies,webRequest,identity | Risk Factor | | Allows extensions to intercept web requests, manage cookies, and access identity or certificate-related functionalities, potentially compromising secure access and authentication processes. |
| cookies | Permission | | This permission provides full access to read and modify browser cookies. Rated High because it can steal session tokens, modify authentication cookies, and compromise accounts across websites. |
| webNavigation | Permission | | This permission enables monitoring of all browser navigation events and transitions. Rated High because it can track every page visit, navigation method, and browsing pattern, potentially exposing sensitive browsing behavior and user activities. |
| offscreen | Permission | | This permission creates hidden browser documents with full DOM access. Rated High because it can run background operations invisibly, potentially executing malicious code without user awareness. |
| identity | Permission | | This permission accesses Chrome identity service and user information. Rated High because it can obtain OAuth tokens, access connected accounts, and impersonate the user in authenticated service. |
| Dangerous Permission Combination: scripting,cookies,webRequest | Risk Factor | | Enables extensions to interact with scripts, modify files and downloads, and alter browsing history and bookmarks, potentially affecting data integrity and user control. |
| Contextual Risk Factors | Risk Factor | | The following context increases the overall risk:• 10% increase: Early script execution enables pre-emptive content manipulation• 25% increase: Unsafe code evaluation capabilities increase attack surface |
| Broad Host Permissions | Risk Factor | | This extension has broad host permissions allowing it to access many or all websites. |
| Broad Content Script Access | Risk Factor | | This extension can inject scripts into any website. |
| Unsafe WebAssembly Execution | Risk Factor | | This extension's CSP allows "wasm-unsafe-eval". |
| storage | Permission | | This permission allows storing data locally in the browser. Rated Medium because it can persist sensitive user data, track user activities over time, and potentially store malicious payloads. |
| unlimitedStorage | Permission | | This permission removes storage quota restrictions. Rated Medium because it can store large amounts of user data without limits, potentially impacting browser performance and storing extensive tracking data. |
| activeTab | Permission | | This permission grants temporary access to the current tab. Rated Medium because it can access current page content when invoked, though limited to user-initiated actions. |
| management | Permission | | This permission manages other installed extensions. Rated Medium because it can enable/disable other extensions and modify their settings, with changes being visible to users. |
| declarativeNetRequestFeedback | Permission | | This permission provides network request modification logs. Rated Medium because it can monitor network request changes and debug traffic modifications. |
| Early Content Script Execution | Risk Factor | | This extension runs content scripts at document_start. |
| alarms | Permission | | This permission schedules periodic tasks. Rated Low because it can only trigger events at specified times without access to sensitive data. |
| notifications | Permission | | This permission displays system notifications. Rated Low because it can only show user-visible notifications without accessing system data. |
