View on AUR

Why flagged

The source is a prebuilt installer from Microchip's official domain (microchip.com), which is the legitimate vendor; despite the non-whitelisted host, the download is from the project's official source and the checksum is provided, making it a standard AUR package for proprietary toolchains.

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-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The source is a prebuilt installer from Microchip's official domain (microchip.com), which is the legitimate vendor; despite the non-whitelisted host, the download is from the project's official source and the checksum is provided, making it a standard AUR package for proprietary toolchains.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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