LOW
View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The package downloads a prebuilt installer from an official Kaspersky subdomain, which is plausibly legitimate; the binary is not executed during build, only installed and made executable, and the source is verifiable via checksum, reducing supply-chain risk despite the non-whitelisted host.

Triggered rules

LOW Few votes, recently uploaded zero_votes_recent

Uploaded within the last 14 days with 2 or fewer community votes — little peer review so far.

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 installer from an official Kaspersky subdomain, which is plausibly legitimate; the binary is not executed during build, only installed and made executable, and the source is verifiable via checksum, reducing supply-chain risk despite the non-whitelisted host.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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