If the icon is red, it means that the website that you have visited is most likely vulnerable and is susceptible to remote command execution attacks.
Internally, this extension makes requests to an API (https://shellshocker.net/#api) to determine whether or not a website is vulnerable to the 'shellshocker' vulnerability.
