Why flagged

The source URLs are from cdn-fastly.obsproject.com, a legitimate CDN used by the OBS project; the files are CEF binaries necessary for building, and checksums are provided, making the risk low despite the non-standard host flag.

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-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The source URLs are from cdn-fastly.obsproject.com, a legitimate CDN used by the OBS project; the files are CEF binaries necessary for building, and checksums are provided, making the risk low despite the non-standard host flag.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
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, …).

69## About vlc-luajit
70# The official VLC package will make OBS crash when a VLC source is used.
71# The issue is that VLC and OBS are compiled with different lua version.
72# So I also created vlc-luajit, a VLC package compiled with the same lua as OBS.
73# But to make people unable to install VLC official package with obs-studio-tytan652.
74# I decided to make vlc-luajit a dependency of OBS rather than an optional one.
