Why flagged

The package downloads the official software from the project's own domain (msg-easytax.ch), which is plausibly the legitimate source for Aargau's tax software, and installs it along with a publicly available icon; the non-whitelisted host is the actual vendor, making this a normal AUR package build with low risk.

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 the official software from the project's own domain (msg-easytax.ch), which is plausibly the legitimate source for Aargau's tax software, and installs it along with a publicly available icon; the non-whitelisted host is the actual vendor, making this a normal AUR package build with low risk.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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, …).
