LOW

Why flagged The package downloads source files and a book file from the official project domain komodochess.com, which is plausibly the project's own infrastructure; the files are either data (book.bin, COPYING) or a prebuilt binary from the official source, making the risk low despite the non-whitelisted host flag.

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 source files and a book file from the official project domain komodochess.com, which is plausibly the project's own infrastructure; the files are either data (book.bin, COPYING) or a prebuilt binary from the official source, making the risk low despite the non-whitelisted host flag.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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