Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt tarball from a non-standard host (static.tp-link.com) which is not on the analyzer's whitelist, and the source is a proprietary controller application that could be tampered with if the host were compromised, though it is plausibly an official vendor domain.

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, …).
