MEDIUM

Why flagged The PKGBUILD downloads a prebuilt Electron/desktop .deb binary from ci.lls.fr (a CI/CD host for lelivrescolaire.fr, a French educational publisher). The binary is executed code (an Electron app installed to /opt and /usr), not mere data. Two concerns: (1) the source is a CI artifact URL ('latest') rather than a versioned release, meaning the binary can change silently at any time without the PKGBUILD being updated; (2) md5sums=('SKIP') means no integrity check is performed. If ci.lls.fr is compromised or serves a malicious build, users would install it without any checksum verification. The host appears to be the vendor's own CI infrastructure rather than a random personal host, which reduces (but does not eliminate) the risk. This is a genuine supply-chain concern: a floating 'latest' URL with no checksum for an installed binary is a real medium-severity issue, not a false positive.
