What our analysis found
RuDostup — Обход блокировки YouTube в Северной Корее, used by 50,000 people, is rated caution by Extension Auditor. Our code review reported 2 findings (1 high, 1 medium), led by unauthorized data collection. Its permissions mean it can inject scripts into pages.
Key findings
- High
Unauthorized Data Collection
The extension sends every navigation URL to [domain withheld] via a POST request. This collects users' browsing history without any disclosure in the CWS privacy practices (none declared). The data includes the full URL, which may contain sensitive information. The destination domain is not the publisher's website and no data collection categories were disclosed.
- Medium
Other
The published Chrome Web Store listing includes host_permissions ["[domain withheld]", "[domain withheld]"] and "scripting" permission, but the bundled does not include these. This indicates a potential mismatch that could allow the live extension more capabilities than the bundled code suggests, undermining the user's trust.
Analyst notes
The extension sends every visited URL to a third-party domain ([domain withheld]) without disclosure in the CWS privacy practices (none declared). The published manifest includes additional permissions (host_permissions, scripting) not present in the bundled code, indicating a possible update gap. The core proxy functionality is otherwise consistent with the extension's stated purpose, but the covert data collection and permission inconsistency raise significant concerns.
