LOW
View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The package downloads a Vim script plugin from vim.org, a plausible project host, and installs it as plain text and Vim script files; these are not executed remotely and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code injection into the editor, but given the context of a trusted plugin site and no obfuscation, the risk is low.

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-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The package downloads a Vim script plugin from vim.org, a plausible project host, and installs it as plain text and Vim script files; these are not executed remotely and the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code injection into the editor, but given the context of a trusted plugin site and no obfuscation, the risk is low.

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, …).
