Why flagged

The package downloads a ROM file from a well-known retro gaming site (atariage.com) for local execution in an emulator; the source is not executable code and the host, while not whitelisted, is a legitimate archival resource for vintage games.

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 package downloads a ROM file from a well-known retro gaming site (atariage.com) for local execution in an emulator; the source is not executable code and the host, while not whitelisted, is a legitimate archival resource for vintage games.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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, …).
