Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt static FFmpeg binary from Jellyfin's official repository domain (repo.jellyfin.org), which is the project's own release infrastructure; although the host is not a common whitelist entry, it is plausibly official, and the binary is verified with a fixed SHA256 checksum, making silent substitution unlikely.

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-2507) 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 the project's own release infrastructure; although the host is not a common whitelist entry, it is plausibly official, and the binary is verified with a fixed SHA256 checksum, making silent substitution unlikely.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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