Is Счетчик писем Mail safe?

Clean risk

Счетчик писем Mail sends the user's mail.ru account email address to mail.ru's own analytics endpoint every 2 minutes.

This extension checks a signed-in mail.ru account for new messages and shows the count on its toolbar badge. On every periodic refresh (roughly every 2 minutes), plus on install, browser startup, and toolbar clicks, it sends the account's email address as a plain query-string parameter to mail.ru's own analytics endpoint. Because the email is passed via a GET request rather than a POST body, it is more likely to be captured in server, proxy, or browser history logs than a body-encoded value would be.

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

Publisher
Mail.Ru

Shared hosts - 2 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.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Счетчик писем Mail contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
