Is Leganto Cite it! Bookmarking Tool safe?

Low risk

Leganto Cite it! Bookmarking Tool lets any website ask the extension to reload an open tab.

The extension runs a content script on all websites and accepts page messages named citeItFinished without checking the page origin. When it receives one, the background script searches open tabs by URL suffix and reloads the matching tab, so a webpage can influence tab reload behavior through the extension.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.
