LOW

Why flagged The package downloads official Brother driver RPMs from the vendor's own download domain (download.brother.com), which is a legitimate source despite not being on standard whitelists; the files are not executed directly but extracted and installed as part of a normal driver package build, posing minimal risk.

Triggered rules
