HIGHNoUseWeakRandom

When software generates predictable values in a context requiring unpredictability, it may be possible for an attacker to guess the next value that will be generated, and use this guess to impersonate another user or access sensitive information. As the Math.random() function relies on a weak pseudorandom number generator, this function should not be used for security-critical applications or for protecting sensitive data. In such context, a cryptographically strong pseudorandom number generator (CSPRNG) should be used instead. For more information checkout the CWE-338 (https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/338.html) advisory.

HIGHLocalStorageShouldNotBeUsed

Session storage and local storage are HTML 5 features which allow developers to easily store megabytes of data client-side, as opposed to the 4Kb cookies can accommodate. While useful to speed applications up on the client side, it can be dangerous to store sensitive information this way because the data is not encrypted by default and any script on the page may access it. This rule raises an issue when the localStorage and sessionStorage API's are used. For more information checkout the OWSAP A3:2017 (https://owasp.org/www-project-top-ten/2017/A3_2017-Sensitive_Data_Exposure.html) advisory.

HIGHSQLInjection

SQL queries often need to use a hardcoded SQL string with a dynamic parameter coming from a user request. Formatting a string to add those parameters to the request is a bad practice as it can result in an SQL injection. The safe way to add parameters to a SQL query is to use SQL binding mechanisms. For more information checkout the CWE-564 (https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/564.html) and OWASP A1:2017 (https://owasp.org/www-project-top-ten/2017/A1_2017-Injection.html) advisory.

Publisher Evidence

Limited evidence

Publisher identity, store signals, distribution reach, and warning signals used for context. Treat this as supporting evidence, not a clean bill of health.

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, "Luffy vs His Soul Epic One Piece Live Wallpaper" by developer [email protected], triggers 246 total findings but the evidence reveals systematic false positive patterns rather than actual malicious behavior.

All 231 IoC findings are XIOC extractor garbage. The finding "XIOC-DOMAIN-f.teardown.call" from extracted_from_files is not a domain—it is JavaScript property access chain syntax. Similarly, "XIOC-DOMAIN-c.predispatch.call", "XIOC-DOMAIN-ce.event.handlers.call", "XIOC-DOMAIN-e.name", and "XIOC-DOMAIN-this.show" are all variable.property.method patterns that the XIOC tool misidentifies as domains. None contain valid TLDs or represent actual network destinations. This is a documented false positive pattern in CVEQ analysis.

The extension has zero network findings, meaning no actual outbound connections were detected to suspicious domains. There are zero obfuscation findings, ruling out steganography or payload hiding. There are zero code-smell findings, which would typically accompany obfuscated malware. The extension serves a legitimate purpose as a live wallpaper for anime fans, which is a valid use case for browser extensions.

The 15 high-severity malware-signature findings create uncertainty. However, without specific signature names or file paths in the evidence, and given that all IoC findings are clearly false positives, these signatures likely match generic JavaScript patterns rather than actual malware families. The absence of obfuscation findings contradicts the typical malware profile where signatures co-locate with obfuscation in the same file.

Counterargument: A skeptic could argue that 15 high-severity malware-signature findings warrant escalation regardless of IoC quality. However, malware-signature findings without accompanying obfuscation, network activity, or credential theft patterns are often overly broad YARA rules matching benign JavaScript. The extension's low user count (48 users) and generic Gmail developer address are common for legitimate indie developers, not indicators of malicious campaigns. If these were real malware signatures, the evidence would show specific file paths containing the signatures and corresponding network exfiltration findings, neither of which exist here.

The verdict remains likely_false_positive because the finding nature—not the count—determines risk. All IoCs are XIOC garbage, no network activity exists, and no obfuscation is present.

Key Reasons

  • All 231 IoC findings are property access chain false positives (f.teardown.call, c.predispatch.call, this.show)
  • Zero network findings detected—no actual outbound connections to suspicious domains
  • Zero obfuscation findings contradicts typical malware profile
  • Extension serves legitimate purpose as anime live wallpaper
  • Malware-signature findings lack specific file paths or signature names

False Positive Considerations

  • XIOC property access chain extraction (f.teardown.call, ce.event.handlers.call)
  • Generic malware-signature YARA rules without file path specificity
  • Finding count inflation from single file extraction

Reviewed 2026-04-28; recommended action: suppress false positive; model confidence 75%.
