What our analysis found

UiPath Web Automation, used by 200,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It comes from a publisher with 8 extensions and was last updated in June 2022.

Analyst notes

The extension is a legitimate web automation tool by UiPath, a known enterprise RPA vendor. All permissions (management, nativeMessaging, tabs, webNavigation, <all_urls>) are required for its core functionality: browser interaction and element manipulation. The code uses eval to load scripts from a native host, which is a standard design pattern for dynamically updatable automation logic within UiPath's ecosystem. There are no external network requests, no data exfiltration, and all communication is to a local native host. The ML model's low risk score (0.00) and the third-party risk score's permissions-based flags are consistent with an automation extension, not malware. User complaints are about stability, not malicious behavior.
