geant4-realsurfacedata
The package downloads data files from a CERN-hosted domain used by Geant4 for official datasets; despite the non-whitelisted host, the content is non-executable data, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to data tampering, not code execution.
Triggered rules
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 data files from a CERN-hosted domain used by Geant4 for official datasets; despite the non-whitelisted host, the content is non-executable data, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to data tampering, not code execution.
