Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb from a non-whitelisted host (cdn.insynchq.com), which is not inherently malicious but presents a supply-chain risk if the host were compromised or the download redirected, especially since the checksum is provided but the source is a binary blob not built from auditable source code.

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, …).
