Is Magnifying Glass for Google Chrome™ safe?

Medium risk

Magnifying Glass for Google Chrome places a screenshot of the current tab into the page DOM after you click it.

When you click the extension action, it captures the visible active tab and injects a magnifier overlay into the page. The overlay stores the screenshot data URL as the background of a DOM element, which means scripts running on that page can read the screenshot value.
