exciting
The source is a tarball from a project-associated host (wdfiles.com, used by wikidot sites) for building the software from source; it is not an unverifiable prebuilt binary, and the realistic risk from a swapped source is limited to supply-chain issues in the built code, not automatic remote code execution.
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 90%): The source is a tarball from a project-associated host (wdfiles.com, used by wikidot sites) for building the software from source; it is not an unverifiable prebuilt binary, and the realistic risk from a swapped source is limited to supply-chain issues in the built code, not automatic remote code execution.

source_untrusted_domain
One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
