Why flagged

The PKGBUILD installs a prebuilt binary tarball from an S3 bucket (omega.gg's official distribution bucket, matching the upstream vendor's own download infrastructure at omega.gg/MotionBox) with SKIP'd checksum. While omega.gg is the legitimate upstream vendor for MotionBox, using SKIP instead of a pinned sha256 means any future change to the tarball on S3 would go undetected. The binary is executed directly (/opt/MotionBox/usr/bin/MotionBox). This is a real supply-chain concern: no integrity verification on the most security-sensitive artifact (the binary). The desktop file and icon have proper checksums. The S3 host appears to be the official vendor distribution channel, not a personal/unofficial host, which reduces but does not eliminate the risk — S3 bucket misconfigurations or takeovers are a known attack vector. Overall this remains a medium: executed binary with no checksum from a cloud storage host.

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, …).
