MEDIUM

Why flagged This PKGBUILD downloads prebuilt binary .deb files (executable binary, shared library, static library) from a Codeberg Pages host (uos-robotics.codeberg.page) — a personal/organizational static hosting page, not an official upstream release host. All three checksums are 'SKIP', meaning there is zero integrity verification. The build() phase also executes the downloaded binary directly to generate shell completions. The combination of: (1) prebuilt binaries from an unofficial/personal host, (2) no checksum verification whatsoever, and (3) direct execution of the downloaded binary during build, constitutes a genuine supply-chain risk. If the Codeberg Pages content is replaced or the host is compromised, arbitrary code runs on the builder's machine. The maintainer appears to be the same person as the upstream author (stelzo), which reduces but does not eliminate the concern, since the hosting is still a mutable personal page with no pinned integrity guarantees. This is a textbook medium-severity supply-chain concern.

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, …).
