Question

Is 1VPN safe?

Accepted Answer

1VPN is medium risk. Each time you connect the VPN, and on every browser startup while the VPN is marked connected, the extension sends a request to cloudflaircdn.com — a name that resembles a Cloudflare CDN but is hardcoded into this extension. The request carries no body, but the receiving server sees your real IP address and browser user-agent in the connection. This domain was added between versions 4.1.1 and 4.1.3: version 4.1.1 sent the equivalent request to the extension's stated host (1vpn.org / the stored API host), while 4.1.3 onward hardcodes cloudflaircdn.com. Dynamic analysis captured the request: GET https://cloudflaircdn.com/proxy_auth/ returned HTTP 200 immediately after the VPN connect toggle was pressed.
