Permission Inspector

By: Trishul
Snapshot of all the permissions used by each installed extension.

Features & Capabilities

Permission Inspector is a powerful Chrome extension designed to give users complete visibility over all permissions used by their installed browser extensions. Unlike the initial permission prompt during installation, this tool provides ongoing insights into what each extension can access and perform within your browser.

Key features include two distinct views: an extension-wise view that lists permissions used by each add-on, and a permission-wise view that shows all add-ons utilizing a particular permission. This comprehensive snapshot helps users manage and audit their extensions effectively. Furthermore, Permission Inspector supports over 30 languages, including English, German, French, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Hindi, and more, making it accessible to a broad global audience.

Is Permission Inspector 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.

Permission Inspector requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Medium Manages other extensions, which allows oversight but might intervene with user configurations and choices.
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.

Permission Inspector has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
