MEDIUM

Why flagged The package downloads a prebuilt AppImage from a non-standard host (cdn.anythingllm.com), which is not on the standard whitelist; while the domain appears legitimate and hosts official releases, the lack of verifiable source control and use of a third-party CDN for executable binaries creates a supply-chain risk if the CDN were compromised or the download silently swapped.

Triggered rules

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, …).
