ExtensionCrawler

A collection of utilities for downloading and analyzing browser extension from the Chrome Web store.

  • crawler: A crawler for extensions from the Chrome Web Store.
  • permstats.py: A tool for generating statistical data from the crawled extensions.
  • crx-tool.py: A tool for analyzing and extracting *.crx files (i.e., Chrome extensions). Calling crx-tool.py <extension>.crx will check the integrity of the extension.

All utilities are written in Python 3.x. The following non-standard modules might be required:

  • dateutil (apt-get install python3-dateutil)
  • jsmin (apt-get install python3-jsmin)
