Is Social Link safe?
Social Link renders remote-message text as raw HTML on LinkedIn pages without sanitizing it first.
The extension fetches notification messages from its own server and displays them as toast popups injected into every LinkedIn page. The first message shown is inserted directly into the page's HTML without any sanitization, while later messages in the same toast are cleaned with DOMPurify — an inconsistency that leaves the initial render exposed to markup contained in the server's response.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
17 other listings published from this account, 97k+ users between them. 1 of them carries a finding.
Shared hosts - 2 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.

What it can do

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Social Link contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
