Why flagged The package downloads the source from the project's official domain, which is not on the standard whitelist but is plausibly legitimate; the content is a self-contained tarball and favicon used to build and install the application, with no evidence of malicious or remote code execution behavior.

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-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The package downloads the source from the project's official domain, which is not on the standard whitelist but is plausibly legitimate; the content is a self-contained tarball and favicon used to build and install the application, with no evidence of malicious or remote code execution behavior.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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