Abstract generation in progress

On August 9, the official "Immersive Translation" plugin announced the suspension of its bilingual webpage sharing feature. It stated that "recently, we received feedback from the community that a small number of users inadvertently shared pages that may contain personal information while using this feature and did not promptly delete them in their personal center. To avoid potential privacy risks, we have decided to temporarily take this feature offline, and it will not be reinstated until a comprehensive privacy protection mechanism is established. The official "Immersive Translation" stated that there is no involvement of any translation content or leakage of backend user data, as external accessible links are only generated when users actively use the bilingual webpage sharing feature."

In addition, according to community news, some users reported that the "immersive translation" plugin leaked user privacy due to improper access control. Some users reported that their wallet private keys were leaked, and there are vulnerabilities in the "webpage snapshot" feature.

There is currently no authoritative security agency that has issued a warning regarding this event. Users are advised to view it rationally and pay attention to asset protection.
