Is Valerus safe?

Clean risk

Valerus sends configured server URLs and window state to its local native messaging host.

When a user opens a saved Valerus server from the extension, it passes the server URL plus tab and window details through Chrome native messaging. The local host also receives follow-on focus, blur, resize, fullscreen, and tab movement updates so the native Valerus app can mirror the extension window state.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Valerus 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.

  • native:com.valerus.chrome.extension
