Chrome ext Malware

It look like some research was done and they discovered that a large amount of users unintentionly installed malicious extension on their Chrome browser.

Although Chrome does it's best to secure it's browser at times things do slip in but eventually get pulled from the Play Store not staying that long. Most of this is due to lack of maintenance to the app to close vulnerbilities.

Hopefully some time in the near future, there will be an better way to scan for vulnerable extensions, but for now you just need to be cautious.
