LOW

Why flagged The package downloads a prebuilt static FFmpeg binary from Jellyfin's official repository domain (repo.jellyfin.org), which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; despite the non-whitelisted host, the source is verifiable and matches the project's official distribution, and the installed files are static binaries intended for bundling with Jellyfin, not executable scripts or obfuscated payloads.

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 downloads a prebuilt static FFmpeg binary from Jellyfin's official repository domain (repo.jellyfin.org), which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; despite the non-whitelisted host, the source is verifiable and matches the project's official distribution, and the installed files are static binaries intended for bundling with Jellyfin, not executable scripts or obfuscated payloads.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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, …).
