LOW

Why flagged The package downloads a firmware file from a project-maintainer's personal domain; firmware is non-executable data installed in the standard location, so even if the host were compromised, the impact is limited to the device driver using malicious firmware, not arbitrary 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 package downloads a firmware file from a project-maintainer's personal domain; firmware is non-executable data installed in the standard location, so even if the host were compromised, the impact is limited to the device driver using malicious firmware, not arbitrary 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1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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, …).
