cheatbreaker
The package downloads a prebuilt AppImage from a non-whitelisted, project-specific host (r2.cheatbreaker.net), which is an unverifiable executable artifact that could be silently replaced with malicious code; however, it is part of the official project's distribution infrastructure, reducing likelihood of third-party compromise.
Triggered rules
source_untrusted_domain
One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
