Why flagged
The package downloads prebuilt .deb binaries from a non-whitelisted host (dl.defined.net), which are then extracted and installed; this constitutes an unverifiable supply-chain risk as the binaries are not built from source and could be replaced by a malicious actor controlling the host.
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, …).
