What our analysis found

vCastSender, used by 80,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It comes from a publisher with 2 extensions and was last updated in July 2025.

Analyst notes

The extension implements a legitimate screen sharing and device control tool. The background script only manages popup windows. The main and reverse pages use local network requests and Chrome runtime ports for inter-page communication, consistent with casting functionality. No data exfiltration, tracking, code injection, or obfuscation beyond standard minification was found. Broad permissions (desktopCapture, *://*) are necessary for screen capture and connecting to local IPs. The CWS‑disclosed 'Location' collection matches IP‑address discovery for network setup, and the privacy policy points to the publisher's domain.
