Why flagged
The package builds from a legitimate project Git repository and applies a patch from a personal host; however, the patch is a small, reviewable diff for a specific workaround and does not introduce unverifiable executable code, making the risk low.
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 95%): The package builds from a legitimate project Git repository and applies a patch from a personal host; however, the patch is a small, reviewable diff for a specific workaround and does not introduce unverifiable executable code, making the risk low.
1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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, …).
