PreConnect as a Chrome extension for BRACU students.
PreConnect is a lightweight Chrome extension for BRAC University students that makes login and access faster, smoother, and easier from the browser. It helps you: - Sign in through the extension-hosted PreConnect app - Keep your browser flow connected without switching between tools - Access PreConnect features in a mobile app interface - Stay focused with a simple, student-first experience PreConnect is built for BRACU students who want a quick and reliable way to use the app directly from Chrome.
The bundled manifest declares 11 permissions including sensitive capabilities (cookies, scripting, unlimitedStorage) and `<all_urls>` host access, whereas the CWS-published manifest lists only 3 permissions (storage, tabs, webNavigation) and restricts host access to specific BRACU and preconnect.app domains. This means Google's CWS security review evaluated a substantially narrower permission set than what is actually installed on users' browsers. The extension only uses these permissions for BRACU-specific functionality in the code reviewed, but the underdeclared permissions to CWS are a misrepresentation of the extension's true capabilities.
