Hello guys, I'm trying to read information from a pdf, it works fine. But when I send the same code to the add-on, it returns Error: Permission denied to access property "autoAllocateChunkSize". This leads me to believe it's some specific permission in manifest.json.

I would like help on what permission should I include for it to work.

I ran the same test of addons in firefox 96 and it worked but in newer versions the permission denied error is thrown when accessing autoAllocateChunkSize
