LOW

Why flagged The package downloads a prebuilt AppImage from the official vendor's domain (infomaniak.com), which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; while the host is not on a standard whitelist, it is not a personal file-sharing service, and the checksum is provided, making this a low-risk, typical AUR AppImage package.

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 AppImage from the official vendor's domain (infomaniak.com), which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; while the host is not on a standard whitelist, it is not a personal file-sharing service, and the checksum is provided, making this a low-risk, typical AUR AppImage package.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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