MEDIUM

Why flagged Downloads a prebuilt binary .deb from minecraft-linux.github.io (a GitHub Pages site, plausibly the project's own) with a SKIP'd checksum, extracts and installs executables directly — the SKIP'd checksum means the binary cannot be verified, but the host appears to be the project's own official distribution channel rather than a personal file-sharing service.

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, …).
