edid-generator-git
The source is a git checkout from a plausible project-owned GitHub repository, which is normal for AUR packages; the non-whitelisted host is GitHub, a common and expected forge, and the package builds from source without executing untrusted binaries.
Triggered rules
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 source is a git checkout from a plausible project-owned GitHub repository, which is normal for AUR packages; the non-whitelisted host is GitHub, a common and expected forge, and the package builds from source without executing untrusted binaries.
1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
source_untrusted_domain
One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
