LOW
View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The source is hosted on the maintainer's personal domain, which is not on a standard whitelist, but the package builds from source code that is part of the project's own distribution and not an executable payload; the worst case of a swapped source would be limited to code execution during build, but given the project's small scope and the fact that this is a known maintainer's legitimate hosting, the risk is low.

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 hosted on the maintainer's personal domain, which is not on a standard whitelist, but the package builds from source code that is part of the project's own distribution and not an executable payload; the worst case of a swapped source would be limited to code execution during build, but given the project's small scope and the fact that this is a known maintainer's legitimate hosting, the risk is low.

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, …).
