chess-electron
The package downloads an icon from chess.com, a legitimate and expected host for this app, which is used as static data; the actual application runs electron on chess.com directly, posing minimal risk despite the non-whitelisted host and skipped checksum.
Triggered rules
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 package downloads an icon from chess.com, a legitimate and expected host for this app, which is used as static data; the actual application runs electron on chess.com directly, posing minimal risk despite the non-whitelisted host and skipped checksum.
1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
source_untrusted_domain
One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
