LOW

Why flagged The source is hosted on a university-affiliated domain (KEK, a research institution) under the maintainer's personal directory, which is non-standard but plausibly legitimate for academic software; the package builds from source and installs a binary and HTML documentation, with no evidence of malicious intent or remote 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 source is hosted on a university-affiliated domain (KEK, a research institution) under the maintainer's personal directory, which is non-standard but plausibly legitimate for academic software; the package builds from source and installs a binary and HTML documentation, with no evidence of malicious intent or remote 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1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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, …).
