MEDIUM

Why flagged The package downloads a prebuilt AppImage executable from a non-whitelisted but plausibly official vendor host (cdn.chillicream.com); while the host is not on the standard whitelist, it belongs to the software vendor, and the download is verified via b2sum, reducing risk—however, distributing a prebuilt binary constitutes a supply-chain risk if the source is unverifiable, warranting medium severity.

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, …).
