What This Extension Does

The Free Vpn For Chrome By 1c extension claims to provide a simple VPN solution for Chrome, allowing users to unblock websites and browse anonymously. It promises fast, secure, and unlimited access to the internet with one-click activation. However, its true capabilities and data handling practices are unclear.

Permissions Explained

  • alarmsexpected: This permission allows the extension to display notifications and alerts.
    Technical: The alarms API provides a way for extensions to schedule and manage notifications, which can be used to inform users about connection status or other events. However, this permission also grants access to system resources, potentially allowing malicious code to execute arbitrary actions.
  • webRequestexpected: This permission allows the extension to intercept and modify web requests.
    Technical: The webRequest API provides a way for extensions to inspect, block, or redirect web requests. This can be used to implement VPN functionality, but it also grants access to sensitive user data, such as browsing history and credentials. ⚠ 1
  • proxyexpected: This permission allows the extension to act as a proxy server for web requests.
    Technical: The proxy API provides a way for extensions to intercept and modify web requests, which can be used to implement VPN functionality. However, this permission also grants access to sensitive user data, such as browsing history and credentials. ⚠ 1
  • storageexpected: This permission allows the extension to store and retrieve data locally on the user's device.
    Technical: The storage API provides a way for extensions to store and retrieve data locally, which can be used to cache VPN configuration or other settings. However, this permission also grants access to sensitive user data, such as browsing history and credentials.
  • unlimitedStorageexpected: This permission allows the extension to store an unlimited amount of data locally on the user's device.
    Technical: The unlimitedStorage API provides a way for extensions to store large amounts of data locally, which can be used to cache VPN configuration or other settings. However, this permission also grants access to sensitive user data, such as browsing history and credentials.
  • webRequestAuthProviderexpected: This permission allows the extension to authenticate web requests using a custom authentication provider.
    Technical: The webRequestAuthProvider API provides a way for extensions to authenticate web requests using a custom authentication provider. This can be used to implement VPN functionality, but it also grants access to sensitive user data, such as browsing history and credentials. ⚠ 1
  • *://*/*expected: This permission allows the extension to intercept and modify web requests for any domain.
    Technical: The *://*/* permission grants access to all web requests, which can be used to implement VPN functionality. However, this permission also grants access to sensitive user data, such as browsing history and credentials. ⚠ 1
  • https://1clickvpn.net/api/expected: This permission allows the extension to communicate with the 1ClickVPN API.
    Technical: The https://1clickvpn.net/api/ permission grants access to a specific domain, which can be used to implement VPN functionality. However, this permission also grants access to sensitive user data, such as browsing history and credentials.

Your Data

The extension accesses a wide range of user data, including browsing history, cookies, and credentials. It also sends data to various domains, including the 1ClickVPN API.

Technical Details

The extension contacts the following domains: www.w3.org, reactjs.org, github.com, 1clickvpn.net, www.example.com, sentry.io, www.npmjs.com, astrid.1clickvpn.net, api.1clickvpn.net, animate.style, opensource.org, fonts.googleapis.com. It also uses the following protocols: HTTP, HTTPS, WebSockets.

Code Findings

Dynamic Code ExecutionHigh

The extension uses dynamic code execution to load scripts dynamically.

Technical: The Function constructor is used to create a new function, which is then executed using the eval() method. This allows the extension to execute arbitrary code at runtime.

💡 Dynamic code execution can be used for legitimate purposes, such as loading external scripts or implementing dynamic functionality.

String.fromCharCode ObfuscationMedium

The extension uses string obfuscation to hide its code.

Technical: The String.fromCharCode() method is used to convert a character code to a string. This can be used to obfuscate code and make it harder to analyze.

💡 String obfuscation can be used for legitimate purposes, such as protecting sensitive data or implementing encryption.

Creates Script Elements DynamicallyHigh

The extension creates script elements dynamically to load external scripts.

Technical: The document.createElement() method is used to create a new script element, which is then appended to the document. This allows the extension to load external scripts at runtime.

💡 Creating script elements dynamically can be used for legitimate purposes, such as loading external libraries or implementing dynamic functionality.

Uses postMessage for Cross-Origin CommsMedium

The extension uses the postMessage() method to communicate with other scripts across domains.

Technical: The window.postMessage() method is used to send messages to other scripts, which can be used to implement cross-origin communication. However, this also grants access to sensitive user data, such as browsing history and credentials.

💡 Using postMessage for cross-origin comms can be used for legitimate purposes, such as implementing dynamic functionality or loading external libraries.

Bottom Line

Based on our analysis, we recommend exercising caution when using the Free Vpn For Chrome By 1c extension. While it claims to provide a simple VPN solution, its true capabilities and data handling practices are unclear. The extension accesses a wide range of user data, including browsing history, cookies, and credentials, and sends data to various domains. We also found several security concerns, including dynamic code execution, string.fromCharCode obfuscation, creating script elements dynamically, and using postMessage for cross-origin comms. Users should carefully review the extension's permissions and behavior before installing it.
