LOW

Why flagged Builds from the project's own GitHub repository (lenucksi/aur-malware-check); the only non-standard element is a local bundled shell script 'aur-malware-check.sh' with a pinned sha256 checksum, which is normal AUR packaging practice and not fetched from a remote untrusted host at build time.

Triggered rules

LOW Few votes, recently uploaded zero_votes_recent

Uploaded within the last 14 days with 2 or fewer community votes — little peer review so far.

LOW AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 70%): Builds from the project's own GitHub repository (lenucksi/aur-malware-check); the only non-standard element is a local bundled shell script 'aur-malware-check.sh' with a pinned sha256 checksum, which is normal AUR packaging practice and not fetched from a remote untrusted host at build time.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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