Onetab

What This Extension Does

Permissions Explained

• favicon: Allows the extension to access the favicon of web pages, which might be used for display purposes within the extension's UI.
• unlimitedStorage, storage: These permissions are unusual for a functionality-focused extension like Onetab. They allow the extension to store and retrieve data without any storage limits, which could potentially be used for storing user data or other sensitive information.
• tabs, activeTab: Standard permissions for extensions that interact with tabs, allowing them to access and manipulate tab metadata.
• scripting: Allows the extension to run scripts in web pages, which is typical for functionality-focused extensions like Onetab.
• contextMenus, readingList, tabGroups, bookmarks: These permissions are standard for extensions that aim to manage or interact with browser data.

What We Found in the Code

• The extension makes HTTP requests, which is a normal pattern for extensions that need to communicate with external services. This could be used for API calls, data retrieval, or other purposes.
• There are no content scripts, which means the extension does not inject JavaScript code into web pages.

External Connections

• www.example.com: Unlikely to be related to the extension's functionality, as it is a generic domain name. It might be a placeholder or an error.
• www.one-tab.com, example.com: These could be related to the extension's functionality, possibly for API calls or data retrieval.
• t2.gstatic.com: This is likely used for image loading (e.g., favicons), which is a standard practice for extensions that display images in their UI.
• en.wikipedia.org: Unlikely to be directly related to the extension's functionality, as it is a public wiki domain. It might be an error or a placeholder.
