Is Page Sidebar | Open any page in side panel safe?

Medium risk

Page Sidebar strips X-Frame-Options and CSP headers globally and grants camera, microphone, geolocation, and clipboard to any framed page.

The extension registers a declarativeNetRequest rule that removes X-Frame-Options, x-frame-options, and Content-Security-Policy response headers from all sub-frame requests across every website by default. It also sets an iframe allow attribute granting camera, microphone, geolocation, clipboard-read, and clipboard-write permissions to any URL opened in the sidebar panel, without a separate browser permission prompt for that origin. These behaviors affect all tabs while the extension is active, not just pages the user explicitly opens in the sidebar.
