LOW
View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The source is a plain text shell archive from a personal host, but it is the project's own source being built, not a prebuilt executable, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code execution during build, which is typical for AUR packages.

Triggered rules

LOW AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The source is a plain text shell archive from a personal host, but it is the project's own source being built, not a prebuilt executable, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code execution during build, which is typical for AUR packages.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
MEDIUM source=() URL on a non-standard host source_untrusted_domain

One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
