LOW

Why flagged The source is a zip file from the project's own domain (highscore.de) hosting the actual source code, which is unpacked and installed; this is a normal build process for a C++ library, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code injection during build, but the host is plausibly project-owned despite not being on a whitelist.

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 90%): The source is a zip file from the project's own domain (highscore.de) hosting the actual source code, which is unpacked and installed; this is a normal build process for a C++ library, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code injection during build, but the host is plausibly project-owned despite not being on a whitelist.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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