intel-sde
The source is a legitimate Intel Software Development Emulator tarball from Intel's official download mirror; despite the non-whitelisted host, it is plausibly part of Intel's infrastructure and the package installs only unmodified binaries and links, with no execution of remote code or obfuscated payloads.
Triggered rules
llm_review
The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The source is a legitimate Intel Software Development Emulator tarball from Intel's official download mirror; despite the non-whitelisted host, it is plausibly part of Intel's infrastructure and the package installs only unmodified binaries and links, with no execution of remote code or obfuscated payloads.
1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
source_untrusted_domain
One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
