What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same operator - 17 listings
Published under a different store account, but sharing the registered address, contact or declared legal entity this one gave the store.
Shared hosts - 7 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.
AI-generated. Findings may contain errors. Those marked Verified have been manually reviewed.

What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 1.0.0.31. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to. The current listed version is 1.0.0.30, which we have not unpacked yet.
