Is Up Assistant safe?

Medium risk

Up Assistant uses remote rules to redirect matched pages and log the original and redirect URLs to ali-stat.info.

It downloads configuration from aliup-ext.info that can define URL match rules across any HTTP or HTTPS site. When a rule matches, it can navigate the tab to a server-defined replacement URL and, if logging is enabled, sends the original URL, redirect URL, request ID, initiator, and click ID to ali-stat.info.

Ali Up (aliup.info) - no other listings under this identity, 3 shared hostnames

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.

Shared hosts - 3 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.
