Why flagged

The source is downloaded from the official vendor's website (wch.cn), which is the legitimate provider of the CH9344 driver; despite the non-whitelisted host triggering a static warning, this is a normal and expected source for the driver, and the checksums are provided and valid.

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 95%): The source is downloaded from the official vendor's website (wch.cn), which is the legitimate provider of the CH9344 driver; despite the non-whitelisted host triggering a static warning, this is a normal and expected source for the driver, and the checksums are provided and valid.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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