Why flagged A prebuilt/pre-written script ('ctpkg') is downloaded from a personal CDN host (cdngit.ruzhtw.top) operated by the maintainer themselves, with no integrity verification (sha256sums=SKIP). The file is installed directly as an executable at /usr/bin/ctpkg with mode 755. Even if this is a Fish shell script rather than a compiled binary, it is executed code from an unofficial personal host with no checksum, meaning it could be silently replaced at any time with arbitrary code that runs as the user (or root via sudo, which is a declared dependency). This is a genuine supply-chain concern: no integrity check, personal CDN, executable installed system-wide. Not clearly malicious, but a real medium-severity risk.
