Why flagged

The package builds VTK from source hosted on the project's official website, and the external patches are downloaded from the project's official GitLab instance; while the host is not whitelisted and checksums are skipped for patches, these are build-time patches to fix compilation and do not constitute untrusted executable code or malicious payloads.

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 package builds VTK from source hosted on the project's official website, and the external patches are downloaded from the project's official GitLab instance; while the host is not whitelisted and checksums are skipped for patches, these are build-time patches to fix compilation and do not constitute untrusted executable code or malicious payloads.

2 higher static findings superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)

Medium External download from an untrusted host, not in source=() external_download_not_in_source

curl/wget fetches a URL on a non-allowlisted host that is not part of source=(), so it is not checksum-verified by makepkg.

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, …).
