Motivation
The problem of Edge Extensions security is well-known. Extensions have enormous power, because they allowed to access history and cookies of your browser and even change the content of the page you look at. This opens a huge amount of vectors for fishing attacks and spyware, opening opportunities for a lot kinds of malicious code.
Attackers can track your behaviour in Internet and your geolocation as well. They can steal your Facebook account or authentication cookies for online banking site you use.
The fact that the .crx format documented doesn't make
it easily to manipulate. That's why this tool was created.
