Is Canopy GUI Enhancer safe?
Canopy GUI Enhancer sends hovered MAC addresses from Cambium admin pages to maclookup.info as executable JSONP.
When the extension detects a Cambium device admin page, it adds lookup features that run when a user hovers over or clicks page content. MAC-like text is sent to maclookup.info using a JSONP script response that executes in the admin page, and public IP addresses from the NAT table are sent to ipinfo.io over plaintext HTTP.
