Why flagged

A prebuilt .deb binary is downloaded from idrivedownloads.com (not a widely recognized official domain, though plausibly IDrive's own download infrastructure) and installed directly without building from source; the checksum is present and fixed, reducing swap risk, but the executable is unverifiable and comes from a non-standard host that could be 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, …).
