Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .xpi (Firefox add-on) from the official developer's release host secure.informaction.com, which is plausibly related to the upstream project; the .xpi is a standard extension format, not a generic executable, and is installed as a browser add-on with limited privileges, making the realistic worst-case impact of a compromised source moderate but not severe.

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 package downloads a prebuilt .xpi (Firefox add-on) from the official developer's release host secure.informaction.com, which is plausibly related to the upstream project; the .xpi is a standard extension format, not a generic executable, and is installed as a browser add-on with limited privileges, making the realistic worst-case impact of a compromised source moderate but not severe.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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