Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt AppImage from Plex's official domain (plexamp.plex.tv), which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; the AppImage is extracted and repackaged safely, with clear modifications for sandboxing and desktop integration, posing no evident risk of remote code execution or supply-chain compromise.

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 AppImage from Plex's official domain (plexamp.plex.tv), which is plausibly the project's own release infrastructure; the AppImage is extracted and repackaged safely, with clear modifications for sandboxing and desktop integration, posing no evident risk of remote code execution or supply-chain compromise.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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