The extension needs to be able to read web page contents in order to be able to form fill. The security warning is macOS’ way of informing you that the software is requesting permission to do this, in case you wish to deny authorization.
Apple’s tightening of OS security requires that users grant software specific permissions for things like obtaining access to the Desktop folder, or all files and folders, accessing the microphone or webcam, or obtaining access to the web page content that you are browsing.
