Is LightningProxies Extension safe?

Low risk

LightningProxies Extension supplies stored proxy credentials to every HTTP authentication challenge.

When a proxy is connected, the extension stores its username and password and registers an authentication handler for all URLs. Any site that presents an HTTP authentication challenge can receive those stored proxy credentials because the handler does not distinguish proxy challenges from website challenges.
