Is Editing Enhancer - Editing News safe?
Editing Enhancer sends TikTok post request bodies to v2.editingnews.com and replaces them with the server's response.
On tiktok.com, the extension hooks fetch and XHR calls to 'project/post' URLs and forwards the full request body, with feature flags and a session token, to v2.editingnews.com/api/transform. The body returned by that server replaces the outgoing TikTok request, so the server controls what is posted. It also runs a WebAssembly module supplied by the server in a periodic heartbeat check.

1 other listing published from this account, 5k+ users between them, none of them carrying a finding.
Shared hosts - 2 hostnames
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.
