Is AdGuard Home Control safe?
AdGuard Home Control sends Basic-auth credentials to user-configured AdGuard Home URLs, including HTTP endpoints.
The extension lets users configure an AdGuard Home server URL with either HTTP or HTTPS and stores the server URL, username, and password locally. When it checks status or toggles protection, it sends a Basic Authorization header to that configured server; if the saved URL uses HTTP, those credentials travel without transport encryption.
