mosix
The source is a tarball from the project's official academic domain (huji.ac.il), which is plausibly legitimate despite not being on a standard software host; the package builds from source and installs documentation and binaries without executing remote code or exhibiting malicious behavior.
Triggered rules
llm_review
The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The source is a tarball from the project's official academic domain (huji.ac.il), which is plausibly legitimate despite not being on a standard software host; the package builds from source and installs documentation and binaries without executing remote code or exhibiting malicious behavior.
