metabase
The package downloads a prebuilt JAR from the official vendor's domain (metabase.com), which is a normal and expected practice for Java applications; the host is not on a default whitelist but is plausibly official and trustworthy for this software.
Triggered rules
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 JAR from the official vendor's domain (metabase.com), which is a normal and expected practice for Java applications; the host is not on a default whitelist but is plausibly official and trustworthy for this software.
1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
source_untrusted_domain
One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
