Is Azentio MagTek Excella Control safe?

Low risk

Azentio MagTek Excella Control forwards messages from any web page to a local MagTek native host.

The extension injects a script on all http and https pages that listens for a page message of type 'imalMagTekScan' and relays its contents unchanged to the native host com.path.magtekcontrol (MagTekControlChrome.exe). No check is made on which site sent the message. The host's scanned-image reply is passed back to the active tab as a page event that the page can read.
