Is Career.io Job Auto Apply safe?
Career.io Job Auto Apply lets any webpage set Career.io account tokens in the extension through an unchecked app.html message.
The extension exposes app.html to all sites and injects it as a hidden iframe into pages. That frame accepts SET_JWT postMessages based only on sender and event name, so a webpage can make it call the Career.io account API and store supplied JWT and refresh tokens in chrome.storage.local.
