Is GITHUBER - New Tab safe?

Medium risk

GITHUBER - New Tab sends bookmark logo upload tokens and selected images over cleartext HTTP.

When you edit a bookmark logo, the extension requests an upload token from githuber.zhuowenli.com over HTTP. It then uploads the selected image with that token and key to up-z0.qiniu.com over HTTP, so this data is sent during the bookmark logo upload flow.

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.
