Extuno checks a Firefox add-on before install and after every update.
Extuno reads every Firefox update statically, runs it live in a sandbox, and reviews the source with AI. The diff against the previous release is where a new WebExtension permission, an injected content script, or data leaving the browser shows up.

Every finding is backed by evidence.
Each finding names the change, why it is dangerous, and the recommended action.
Content-script injection
A new content script injects markup that loads code from a remote origin.
New optional permissions
An update requests clipboard and history access not present before.
Form-field harvesting
The add-on reads password fields and posts values off-domain.
v3.1.2 added one fetch() carrying document.cookie
The permission diff surfaces new access; the sandbox records the data leaving the browser.

Common questions
Does Extuno support Firefox?
Yes. Extuno scans Firefox with static analysis, a dynamic sandbox, and AI code analysis, and diffs every version to catch one that was clean but poisoned through an update.
How does Extuno scan Firefox?
Extuno acquires the published Firefox artifact, reads it statically with 1100+ rules, runs it in a network-segmented sandbox, reviews the source with AI, and diffs it against the prior version. The finding names the file, the change, why it is dangerous, and the fix.
What does Extuno catch in Firefox?
Leaked secrets, obfuscated or malicious code, dangerous permissions and APIs, exfiltration and command-and-control behavior, and the headline signal: a version that turns malicious after an update.
