Is Dolby Voice 1.3 safe?

Low risk

Dolby Voice 1.3 exposes a postMessage bridge on all pages that allows any web page to relay messages to the native Dolby Voice application.

The extension injects a content script into every HTTP, HTTPS, and file URL and attaches a window message listener that accepts commands from the hosting page. When a page sends a connect command, the content script opens a port to the background service worker, which in turn calls chrome.runtime.connectNative to establish a connection to the locally installed Dolby Voice launcher. Subsequent messages from the page are forwarded directly to the native host, meaning any website a user visits can interact with the Dolby Voice desktop application without additional confirmation.
