Is Aria2 Download Manager Integration safe?
Aria2 Download Manager Integration sends download URLs and selected request headers to a configured aria2 endpoint.
When you start a download, the extension can send the download URL plus Referer, Cookie, Authorization, and related request headers to the aria2 JSON-RPC service you configured. Its default endpoint is local at 127.0.0.1:6800/jsonrpc, but the recipient depends on the user's aria2 host settings.
