Is ABV Notifier safe?

Medium risk

ABV Notifier stores ABV account passwords in browser storage in a form recoverable with nearby stored data.

When you add an ABV account, the extension encrypts the password and saves it in extension localStorage. The same storage record contains the salt, and the remaining key inputs are the extension ID and account email, so the saved password can be decrypted back to plaintext for ABV mail checks and service login.
