Why flagged

The PKGBUILD downloads a prebuilt AppImage binary from s3.numi.app (an S3 bucket under the official project domain) and executes it to extract contents. Two concerns: (1) sha256sums is set to 'SKIP', meaning there is no integrity verification whatsoever — the binary could be silently replaced on the S3 bucket without any detection; (2) the source is a prebuilt binary blob (AppImage) rather than source code, from a cloud storage host rather than a versioned release on a well-audited platform like GitHub releases. While s3.numi.app appears to be the official distribution channel for the numi project, the lack of any checksum combined with executing an unverified binary constitutes a genuine supply-chain risk. This is a real medium-severity concern, not a false positive.

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, …).
