What our analysis found
Video Downloader Plus, 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 April 2026.
The extension is a video downloader that legitimately uses broad permissions (tabs, webRequest, declarativeNetRequest, all_urls) to detect and facilitate video downloads. All network communications are with the publisher's own domain () and are consistent with the disclosed CWS data collection categories (personally identifiable information, authentication information, website content). No unauthorized data exfiltration or malicious behavior was found. The ML model's concerns are false positives typical for video downloaders.
