What our analysis found

UiPath Web Automation 21.10, used by 100,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It comes from a publisher with 11 extensions and was last updated in September 2021.

Analyst notes

The extension is a legitimate RPA automation tool from UiPath, a reputable company with no malicious history. All code (e.g., eval in) is necessary for compiling automation drivers received via native messaging from the locally-installed UiPath Studio, consistent with the stated purpose. Broad permissions (debugger, cookies, <all_urls>) are inherent to browser automation and are not abused; there are no network requests to external servers, no data exfiltration, and no unauthorized tracking. The ML model (score 0.00) and permhash cluster (0% malicious) contradict the risk engine's permission-based critical rating.
