Features & Capabilities

Junction is a small utility that allows selecting applications for links and files. This add-on allows directing links from browser to junction via context menu action.

Because Firefox switched to a new fallback parser that breaks the x-junction protocol handling, it has to be changed for this protocol in about:config

Set network.url.simple_uri_unknown_schemes_enabled → true (should already exist as a boolean).
network.url.simple_uri_unknown_schemes → append x-junction. If it already has a value, comma-separate and don't drop what's there: e.g. ed2k,x-junction. No spaces, no colon, no slashes.
Restart firefox

Is Open in Junction 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.

Open in Junction does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

Open in Junction is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
