Why flagged

The package downloads a source tarball from a personal host not on the whitelist, but it is the original project's own source code being compiled, which is normal for AUR packages; the worst case of a swapped source would be code execution during build, but this is a low-risk scenario given the context and lack of obfuscation or remote execution.

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 source tarball from a personal host not on the whitelist, but it is the original project's own source code being compiled, which is normal for AUR packages; the worst case of a swapped source would be code execution during build, but this is a low-risk scenario given the context and lack of obfuscation or remote execution.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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