Is StreamFab M3U8 Downloader safe?
StreamFab M3U8 Downloader forwards request URLs, headers and cookies from every page to its local StreamFab desktop app.
The extension watches all http(s) requests in the browser and records each URL, headers, request body and the related cookies. It passes this data over native messaging to the installed StreamFab desktop app (com.dvdfab.streamfab.m3u8.coapp), which uses it to find and download streams. The captured data goes to the local app, not to a remote server.

4 other listings published from this account, 2k+ users between them. 1 of them carries a finding.
Shared hosts - 9 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.
