Why this matters
An unmaintained extension keeps whatever flaws it shipped with, and a listing with users but no owner is an attractive target to buy and repurpose.
Automated analysis of publicly available code — not a professional security audit. It may produce false positives and does not prove an extension is unsafe or safe. Treat it as one signal among many. Disclaimer · Report an issue
