Is University of Massachusetts Amherst MeaVana safe?

Low risk

MeaVana removes X-Frame-Options and Content-Security-Policy headers from responses on all sites once host access is granted.

On install or update, the extension registers a browser-wide rule that strips frame-protection and Content-Security-Policy headers from every resource type. It takes effect after the user clicks an Integrations or Resources item and grants access to all http(s) sites. The rule is meant to embed third-party sites in the sidebar, but it is not limited to the extension's own frames, so it also applies to normal browsing.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

Published under a different store account, but sharing the registered address, contact or declared legal entity this one gave the store.

Shared hosts - 3 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.
