LOW

Why flagged

The package downloads an unversioned tarball from the official project domain for a web-based circuit simulator; the source is non-executable web assets, and despite the non-whitelisted host and skipped checksum, the risk is low as it installs only static data for a webapp.

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 downloads an unversioned tarball from the official project domain for a web-based circuit simulator; the source is non-executable web assets, and despite the non-whitelisted host and skipped checksum, the risk is low as it installs only static data for a webapp.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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