Why flagged The package downloads a prebuilt bundle from a non-standard, non-whitelisted host (extera.xyz), which is not the project's primary forge (GitHub), and the checksum is skipped, creating a supply-chain risk if the host is compromised or malicious.

Triggered rules

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, …).
