Is Sidebar Tabs — Open Any Website (ChatGPT, Todoist, Notion) in Side Panel safe?

Low risk

Sidebar Tabs removes CSP and X-Frame-Options headers from all sites while loading user-entered pages in its side panel.

When enabled, it installs a browser-wide rule that removes Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options from every site, not just pages opened in the side panel. The side panel loads user-entered websites in iframes, so pages may be displayed without protections their site operators set.

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