Q: Is Video Downloader Pro safe?

Video Downloader Pro is low risk. The rating reflects signals from our analysis that have not yet been published as detailed findings.

Low risk

Video Downloader Pro embeds a hardcoded Twitter API credential that any user of the extension can extract.

The extension bundles a Base64-encoded Twitter consumer key and consumer secret in its source code to enable Twitter video downloads. On each Twitter video request, it sends this credential to api.twitter.com to obtain a Bearer token for app-only API access. Because the credential ships verbatim in the extension package, it is trivially readable by anyone who inspects the bundle.
