Browser extensions are a popular attack vector since they are widely adopted among users and are often neither restricted nor monitored. Attackers can either distribute extensions or attack legitimate extensions. |
Even though modern browsers restrict browser extensions and their access to user data, user error or software bugs may give browser extensions access to user data, allowing them to spy on private data including usernames and passwords.
It's important to restrict the installation of browser extensions and monitor all installed browser extensions on a regular basis.
