High
Summary
A Chrome extension, initially banned for stealing AI chat conversations, has returned to the Chrome Web Store and is now targeting enterprise browsers through Google's CDN. The extension employs a sophisticated affiliate scheme, leveraging update and uninstall events to generate revenue by directing users to an AI video generation platform. Netskope Threat Labs has reported the extension as a Trojan and advises organizations to remove it, warning that the same distribution channel could be used to deliver more damaging payloads in the future.
