Chrome does not expose the same publisher verification data as IDE stores, so this score is deliberately conservative.

AI Security Report

AI Security Review

Evidence context: threat category none; evidence quality weak.

The CVEQ findings for Happy Kid Goku are driven entirely by known false positive patterns. The 501 IoC findings are not real network domains but JavaScript property access chains misidentified by the XIOC extractor. For example, findings like XIOC-DOMAIN-window.open, XIOC-DOMAIN-e.target, XIOC-DOMAIN-db.name, XIOC-DOMAIN-popup.id, and XIOC-DOMAIN-note.style.top are all JavaScript code patterns (API calls, event handlers, property access) that the extractor incorrectly parsed as domain names. This matches the documented false positive pattern: "Property access chains misread as domains: b.call, h.next, g.id."

The legitimate domains in the IoC list (chat.openai.com, maps.google.com, drive.google.com) are standard Google/OpenAI services commonly used by browser extensions and are explicitly listed as benign in the false positive documentation.

Network findings show only two generic fetch calls in js/script.js:45 and js/newsBar.js:17. These are standard JavaScript network requests with no evidence of data exfiltration, credential theft, or suspicious destination domains. The extension's stated purpose (new tab wallpaper with Goku video) is consistent with making fetch calls to load content.

Critically, there are ZERO malware signatures, ZERO obfuscation findings, and ZERO high or critical severity findings. The 34 code-smell findings are all low severity, which is expected for basic JavaScript patterns. The findings summary explicitly shows "malware-signature":"0" and "malware":"0".

The strongest counterargument would be the developer's anonymous email address ([email protected]) and zero user count. However, personal Gmail addresses are standard for indie extension developers, and zero users indicates a newly published or unpopular extension—not malicious intent. Without malware signatures, obfuscation, or suspicious domains, there is no evidence of harmful behavior. The high finding count (538) is entirely explained by the IoC extractor noise pattern documented in CVEQ's known false positives.

This extension should be suppressed from further review as the findings are all from documented false positive patterns with no actual malicious indicators.

Key Reasons

  • All 501 IoC findings are property access chains misread as domains (window.open, e.target, db.name, popup.id)
  • Zero malware signatures detected in the entire codebase
  • Zero obfuscation findings despite high finding count
  • Legitimate domains (maps.google.com, drive.google.com, chat.openai.com) are standard infrastructure
  • Network findings show only generic fetch calls with no suspicious destinations

False Positive Considerations

  • IoC extractor misreading JavaScript property access as domains
  • Code-smell rules firing on standard JavaScript patterns
  • Legitimate CDN/Google domains flagged as IoCs
  • High finding count driven by bundled code noise

Reviewed 2026-04-27; recommended action: suppress false positive; model confidence 92%.
