Is Definer: Word Translator, Ask AI, Popup Dictionary safe?
Definer lets any webpage trigger dictionary or AI lookups through the extension without checking the message origin.
Definer injects a content script on all pages that listens for openDefinerBubble messages and opens a lookup bubble with the supplied query. That lookup is relayed to the background source fetchers, so a webpage can cause the extension to send the query to whichever dictionary, translation, search, or AI sources are active.
Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 3 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.
