LOW

Why flagged The JAR file is downloaded from the official project's domain (a-sit.at), which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; executing the JAR to extract files is part of the build process and not inherently malicious, and the source is verified via checksum.

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 JAR file is downloaded from the official project's domain (a-sit.at), which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; executing the JAR to extract files is part of the build process and not inherently malicious, and the source is verified via checksum.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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