Is Open TortoiseSVN for Google Chrome™ safe?

Low risk

Open TortoiseSVN for Google Chrome sends matching link URLs from broad page clicks to its native TortoiseSVN host.

The extension runs a content script on HTTP, HTTPS, and file pages and listens for page click events on links. When a clicked link matches its configured TortoiseSVN actions, it forwards the link URL and selected action through the extension background script to the native host without checking whether the click was user-generated.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.
