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 moderate.

This extension presents 399 total findings, but the nature of these findings reveals a clear false positive pattern rather than actual malicious behavior.

The 396 IoC findings are all property access chains misread as domains by the XIOC extractor. Specific examples include k.call, b.filter.id, se.call, s.call, t.call, ue.call, n.call, a.id, e.next, e.id, and de.call. These are not real domain names but JavaScript property access patterns (like variable.call or object.id) that the extractor incorrectly flags. This is a well-documented false positive source in the CVEQ platform, where property chains are misinterpreted as suspicious domains.

Critically, there are zero malware signatures detected in the entire codebase. There are also zero obfuscation findings, zero code-smell findings, and zero secret/credential findings. The only network activity detected is a standard fetch call in js/popup.js:29, which is normal behavior for a popup-based extension that needs to load content.

The extension claims to provide live HD wallpapers for the new tab page, and the findings are consistent with a legitimate wallpaper extension. The developer uses a generic Gmail address ([email protected]) rather than a company name, and the extension has only 2 users, indicating very low adoption. While the anonymous publisher and minimal user base are worth noting, they do not constitute evidence of malicious behavior on their own.

Addressing the strongest counterargument: A skeptic might argue that the anonymous developer and low user count suggest a throwaway extension that could be malicious. However, the evidence does not support this concern. If this were a malicious extension, we would expect to see at least one of: malware signatures, obfuscation techniques, suspicious network domains, or credential access patterns. None of these are present. The 396 IoC findings are all documented false positive patterns (property access chains), not actual suspicious domains. The single network finding is a standard fetch call in a popup script, which is expected behavior for any extension that displays dynamic content. The findings volume is inflated by known XIOC extractor noise, not by actual threats. Without malware signatures or suspicious network activity, there is no evidence of malicious intent.

Key Reasons

  • All 396 IoC findings are property access chain false positives (k.call, b.filter.id, e.next, etc.)
  • Zero malware signatures detected in the entire codebase
  • Zero obfuscation findings
  • Network activity limited to standard fetch calls in popup.js
  • No suspicious domains or credential access patterns found

False Positive Considerations

  • XIOC property access chain misinterpretation (k.call, e.next, b.filter.id, etc.)
  • High IoC count from false positive patterns (396 IoC findings, all garbage)
  • Score inflation from IoC volume

Reviewed 2026-05-25; recommended action: suppress false positive; model confidence 85%.
