What This Extension Does
The "迅雷下载支持" (Xunlei Download Support) extension appears to be designed for users who want to download files from various websites, possibly with the help of Xunlei's services. Its category as a productivity/workflow tool suggests it aims to streamline file downloads.Permissions Explained

What We Found in the Code
[medium] innerHTML assignment — potential XSS vector: This flag is likely a normal coding pattern for UI rendering. Extensions often useinnerHTMLto dynamically update content within their UI elements. However, it's worth noting that usinginnerHTMLwith untrusted data can be a security risk if not properly sanitized.[info] Makes HTTP requests: This is a common behavior for extensions that need to communicate with external services or APIs. It doesn't necessarily indicate an issue unless the extension is making requests to unauthorized domains or handling user input in a way that could lead to security vulnerabilities.[high] Listens to keyboard events: Keyboard listeners are often used by extensions for shortcuts or other interactive features within their UI. This flag might be raised due to its potential for misuse, but without more context, it's hard to say if this is an issue.[medium] Potential data exfiltration pattern: This could refer to several patterns in the code that suggest the extension might be sending data out of the browser. Without specific details on what data and where it's being sent, it's difficult to assess the risk.
External Connections
The extension communicates with the following domains:
down.sandai.netmac.xunlei.comwww.xunlei.comwww.w3.org(likely for standardization or compatibility reasons)api-shoulei-ssl.xunlei.comstatic-xl.a.88cdn.comjsq.xunlei.comsl-m-ssl.xunlei.commisc-xl9-ssl.xunlei.comgithub.com(which could be for open-source code hosting or other legitimate purposes)
Things to Consider
- This extension has access to a wide range of permissions, including
<all_urls>, which means it can read all website data. Users should consider whether they trust this level of access. - The use of
nativeMessagingand the broad permissions could indicate that the extension is designed for more than just basic productivity tasks, potentially involving system-level interactions or data collection. - The large user base (45 million) suggests a high level of adoption, which can be both a positive indicator of trustworthiness and a negative one if users are unaware of potential risks.
