Why flagged

The PKGBUILD downloads a prebuilt AppImage binary from a personal/project domain (farvahar.club) and installs it as an executable. The checksum is 'SKIP', meaning there is no integrity verification whatsoever. An AppImage is a self-contained executable that runs arbitrary code. If the host is compromised or the maintainer pushes a malicious update, users would silently execute it. This is a textbook supply-chain risk: an executed binary from an unofficial/personal host with no checksum. Not clearly malicious, but a genuine medium-severity concern.

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, …).
