Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb from a non-whitelisted, project-owned but non-standard host (keepersecurity.com), which is not a common AUR source; while the checksum is provided, the origin is a proprietary binary distribution point, creating a supply-chain risk if the domain were compromised.

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, …).
