Is Bookmarker by start.me safe?
Bookmarker by start.me accepts external messages that can navigate the active tab or open caller-provided URLs.
The extension exposes an external messaging handler that accepts messages from other extensions and selected web pages without sender validation. Those messages can tell it to open a new tab or navigate the active tab to a supplied URL; the available evidence does not show user data being sent to a named recipient.
Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
1 other listing published from this account, 100k+ users between them, none of them carrying 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.
