What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
4 other listings published from this account, 12.0M+ users between them. 2 of them carry a finding.
Shared hosts - 4 hostnames
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.
AI-generated. Findings may contain errors. Those marked Verified have been manually reviewed.
Publishers can request a review.
What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 3.0.4.24. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.
