Why flagged

The source is a prebuilt tarball from a project-specific academic host (molevol-ibe.csic.es), which is not on the standard whitelist but plausibly the official source for this academic software; the package installs only a binary and documentation, with no obfuscated code or remote execution, making the realistic worst-case impact low.

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 source is a prebuilt tarball from a project-specific academic host (molevol-ibe.csic.es), which is not on the standard whitelist but plausibly the official source for this academic software; the package installs only a binary and documentation, with no obfuscated code or remote execution, making the realistic worst-case impact low.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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