MEDIUM

Why flagged The PKGBUILD downloads a prebuilt binary .deb from a personal/unofficial host (pkg.celforyon.fr), extracts it, and installs it directly. This is a genuine supply-chain concern: the host is not an official upstream release infrastructure, and a compromise of that server or the maintainer's hosting account would result in arbitrary binary execution on users' systems. The checksums are MD5 (weak, but present), providing minimal integrity assurance. The pattern of packaging a prebuilt binary from a personal package repository rather than building from source is a real medium-severity supply-chain risk, consistent with AUR policy concerns about binary packages from unofficial hosts.

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, …).
