View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The package downloads a prebuilt binary from the official project domain (easyeda.com) which is not on the whitelist but is plausibly legitimate; the downloaded artifact is a zip file containing the official application, not an obfuscated or malicious payload, and no remote code execution occurs during build or install.

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 prebuilt binary from the official project domain (easyeda.com) which is not on the whitelist but is plausibly legitimate; the downloaded artifact is a zip file containing the official application, not an obfuscated or malicious payload, and no remote code execution occurs during build or install.

2 higher static findings superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
MEDIUM External download from an untrusted host, not in source=() external_download_not_in_source

curl/wget fetches a URL on a non-allowlisted host that is not part of source=(), so it is not checksum-verified by makepkg.

  • PKGBUILD:21 curl -sSfL -o "LICENSE-$pkgver.html" "https://easyeda.com/page/legal"
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, …).

  • PKGBUILD:16 source=("${_pkgname}-${pkgver}.zip::https://image.easyeda.com/files/${_pkgname}-linux-x64-${pkgver}.zip")
