In code review (v3.13.5)

Our reviewer read version 3.13.5 — the most recent version we have reviewed — and found no malicious behaviour. The version shown here has not been individually reviewed yet.

What our analysis found

SEOquake, used by 1,000,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can read and change data on all websites and can observe network requests. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in October 2026.

The extension is a legitimate SEO tool from SEMrush. Broad host permissions and scripting are required for its core functionality (SEO bar, SERP overlay, page analysis). The provided source code shows no malicious behavior; all network communication is handled by the background service worker, and no unauthorized data exfiltration is observed. Analytics events (e.g., 'serpCaptchaPage') are standard telemetry, can be disabled via options, and are sent internally to the background, not directly to third parties. The risk-engine's critical rating is solely based on permission breadth, which is typical for developer tools. The ML model scores this extension as low risk (0.00).
