Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb from the project's own release domain, but since it's a binary blob and not built from source, there is an unverifiable supply-chain risk if the release host were compromised or swapped.

Triggered rules

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, …).
