What our analysis found

Writer - Extension & Clipper, used by 80,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can inject scripts into pages. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in June 2026.

Analyst notes

All network requests go exclusively to Zoho-owned domains ([domain withheld] and its regional variants) for authentication, document management, and user profile retrieval, consistent with the extension's purpose. No obfuscation, remote code loading, or data exfiltration to third parties. The broad content script injection is not actively harvesting page data; it only listens for custom events dispatched by the extension or Writer web app. Permission set is required for core functionality (clipping, importing, paste).
