Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt RPM from a non-whitelisted host (cdn.localwp.com), which is an unverifiable executable artifact; if compromised, it could lead to code execution, though the host is plausibly official.

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, …).
