LOW

Why flagged The package installs a JSON manifest for Chromium to auto-install ChromeVox, which is data, not executable code; the source is from a personal domain but the worst case is tampering with extension installation, not arbitrary code execution.

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 package installs a JSON manifest for Chromium to auto-install ChromeVox, which is data, not executable code; the source is from a personal domain but the worst case is tampering with extension installation, not arbitrary code execution.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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