Why flagged

This PKGBUILD downloads prebuilt RPM binaries (executed code) from a DigitalOcean Spaces bucket (overte-public.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com) rather than building from source. The host appears to be the official Overte project's own storage (the bucket name 'overte-public' and the URL path structure match the project), and sha256sums are provided for integrity verification. However, this is still a supply-chain concern: the binaries are not built locally, the DigitalOcean Spaces bucket is not a traditional official distribution channel, and if the bucket were compromised or the object replaced before the hash was recorded, malicious code could be executed. The sha256sums do provide a meaningful integrity check against substitution after the PKGBUILD is published, but the trust anchor is the bucket owner rather than a signed release. This is a classic AUR prebuilt-binary pattern that warrants medium severity — not clearly malicious, but a real supply-chain risk from executed binaries sourced from a cloud storage bucket.

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, …).
