Why flagged

The PKGBUILD downloads a prebuilt binary from git.mylloon.fr (a personal Gitea instance run by the maintainer) and installs it directly into /usr/bin. Two real concerns: (1) it is a prebuilt executable from a personal/self-hosted forge rather than a well-known official distribution channel, meaning any compromise of that server or a silent binary swap would result in arbitrary code execution on the user's machine; (2) sha256sums_x86_64 is set to 'SKIP', so there is no integrity verification whatsoever — even if the host were trustworthy, a MITM or accidental file corruption would go undetected. The URL pattern (personal Gitea releases) is not an official vendor mirror or a recognised language-ecosystem registry. The combination of an unverified prebuilt binary from a personal host is a genuine supply-chain concern, consistent with a MEDIUM rating.

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, …).
