Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb binary from a non-whitelisted host (packages.freedom.press), which is not a standard distribution mirror; if compromised, this could enable supply-chain attacks via silent binary replacement.

Triggered rules

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, …).
