Is The RSS Aggregator safe?
The RSS Aggregator lets any website trigger extension-privileged requests to caller-supplied URLs.
Its public subscribe page reads a URL from the page query string and passes it to the background worker, which fetches that URL using the extension's broad host permissions. This can disclose the user's IP address and requested URL to whatever destination the calling page supplies.

Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 5.8. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.
