Why flagged

The package downloads a source file from a non-whitelisted but maintainer-controlled domain; however, it installs only a Python script as a GIMP plugin, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code execution within the GIMP context, which is a low-severity supply-chain risk for an AUR package.

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 90%): The package downloads a source file from a non-whitelisted but maintainer-controlled domain; however, it installs only a Python script as a GIMP plugin, and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code execution within the GIMP context, which is a low-severity supply-chain risk for an AUR package.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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