Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb from a non-whitelisted, project-specific domain (files.getgrass.io), which is not a standard Linux distribution source; installing prebuilt binaries from untrusted hosts poses a supply-chain risk if the checksums are not independently verifiable or the host could be compromised.

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, …).
