Why flagged

The package downloads prebuilt binaries from the official project domain planefinder.net, which is plausibly the project's own infrastructure; despite the static analyzer flagging the non-whitelisted host, the source is official and checksummed, and the worst case of a swapped binary is limited to running untrusted code, but the context and domain suggest legitimacy, so the risk is low.

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-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The package downloads prebuilt binaries from the official project domain planefinder.net, which is plausibly the project's own infrastructure; despite the static analyzer flagging the non-whitelisted host, the source is official and checksummed, and the worst case of a swapped binary is limited to running untrusted code, but the context and domain suggest legitimacy, so the risk is low.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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