Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt binary tarball (a Linux game executable) directly from battlejump.com, the official project website. This is the upstream vendor's own host, not a personal or third-party mirror, so it is more trustworthy than a random personal site. However, the package is still pulling a prebuilt binary blob (not source-compiled), the URL is plain HTTP (no TLS), and the integrity check uses MD5 which is cryptographically weak. The version mismatch is also notable: pkgver=0.12.0 but the source URL references v0122, suggesting the PKGBUILD may be stale or inconsistent. These factors — prebuilt binary over plain HTTP with weak checksums — constitute a genuine supply-chain concern even if the host is the official one, keeping this at MEDIUM rather than clean.

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, …).
