Is Horizon Browser Redirection safe?
Horizon Browser Redirection forwards whitelisted page URLs, titles, and tab state to the local Horizon client.
When the native Horizon or VMware host supplies redirect whitelists, the extension installs redirect rules and content scripts for matching pages. It sends the redirected URL, page title, tab dimensions and state, later navigation URLs, and enhanced-mode messages to a local WebSocket at view-localhost.
