delta-app-bin
Prebuilt binary tarball downloaded from releases.delta.dev, a non-standard host unrelated to any well-known project infrastructure; while checksums are provided and the host plausibly belongs to the project, the binary is installed directly without build verification, and the low-vote/recently-uploaded status means the host association is unconfirmed, making silent substitution a realistic supply-chain risk.
Triggered rules
source_untrusted_domain
One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
