MEDIUM

Why flagged The PKGBUILD downloads a prebuilt binary .deb (an Electron-based wallet application) from a DigitalOcean Spaces bucket (cryptonomic-wallet.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com) controlled by the upstream developer/company (Cryptonomic), not from GitHub releases or another canonical release channel. The binary is then extracted and installed directly. While this appears to be the actual upstream release host used by Cryptonomic for their Galleon wallet distributions, it is not a standard, auditable release infrastructure (e.g., GitHub releases). The integrity check is only MD5, which is cryptographically weak. The installed artifact is an executed Electron binary with full user-level code execution capability. This is a genuine supply-chain concern: if the DigitalOcean Spaces bucket were compromised or the object silently replaced, users would execute arbitrary code. This is a real medium-severity concern, not a false positive, though there is no evidence of active malice.
