Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt binary from the project's official release infrastructure (palemoon.org), which is a trusted source; the non-standard host is part of the project's own domain, and the binary is verified via PGP signature, making this a standard and safe AUR packaging practice.

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 package downloads a prebuilt binary from the project's official release infrastructure (palemoon.org), which is a trusted source; the non-standard host is part of the project's own domain, and the binary is verified via PGP signature, making this a standard and safe AUR packaging practice.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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