LOW

Why flagged The source is a plain Emacs Lisp file from emacswiki.org, a community-maintained wiki for Emacs; while the host is not standard, the file is non-executable data installed as part of an Emacs package, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to benign code execution within Emacs, which is already trusted by the user.

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 source is a plain Emacs Lisp file from emacswiki.org, a community-maintained wiki for Emacs; while the host is not standard, the file is non-executable data installed as part of an Emacs package, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to benign code execution within Emacs, which is already trusted by the user.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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