What our analysis found

UiPath Browser Automation 24.10, used by 400,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can read and change data on all websites, can inject scripts into pages and can observe network requests. It comes from a publisher with 8 extensions and was last updated in July 2026.

Analyst notes

This extension is from the reputable UiPath company, a well-known Robotic Process Automation vendor. The broad permissions (debugger, cookies, webRequest, etc.) are required for legitimate browser automation capabilities that interact with web pages, extract UI elements, and communicate with the UiPath via nativeMessaging. The content script code handles automation message routing, driver management, and element highlighting — all consistent with the stated purpose. No data exfiltration, unauthorized network requests, or obfuscation beyond standard Webpack output was found. The ML model assigned a low risk score (0.01), and the third-party risk score is driven entirely by permissions, not behavioral indicators. The extension's 0% malicious rate across 7 other publisher extensions further supports a benign assessment.
