Is TAP Recon safe?
TAP Recon embeds WhatsApp Web in frames and accepts commands from any website that frames it, with no origin check.
The extension strips frame-blocking headers from web.whatsapp.com and injects a script that answers postMessage commands to list groups, read group chat messages, read the user's own contact and send messages. The script does not check who sent the message, so any web page that embeds WhatsApp Web in an iframe can issue these commands and receive the results.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 7 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.
