User Reviews

Users find the JetBrains Toolbox Extension convenient for opening projects directly in JetBrains IDEs from the browser, streamlining their workflow. However, many report limitations such as lack of support for all installed IDEs, especially Android Studio and Rider, incorrect IDE selection, and inadequate user guidance. Some users experience non-functionality or errors, and documentation links fail to provide proper support. Overall, while the extension adds useful integration, it requires improvements in IDE support and clearer usage instructions.

Is JetBrains Toolbox Extension Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

JetBrains Toolbox Extension requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Request access to the following domains: github.com, gitee.com, gitlab.com, bitbucket.org
High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

JetBrains Toolbox Extension is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
