Why flagged

The package downloads a source zip and checksum from NASA's official domain (giss.nasa.gov), which is the project's legitimate host; the build process unpacks and patches the official software, then installs it along with icons and a desktop file, posing no execution of untrusted remote code or supply-chain risk.

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 source zip and checksum from NASA's official domain (giss.nasa.gov), which is the project's legitimate host; the build process unpacks and patches the official software, then installs it along with icons and a desktop file, posing no execution of untrusted remote code or supply-chain risk.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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