Why flagged

The PKGBUILD downloads and installs a prebuilt AppImage binary directly from pomofocus.online, a personal/unofficial domain with no established reputation as a software distribution host. The AppImage is installed as an executable at /usr/bin/pomofocus. While a sha256sum is provided for the AppImage (providing some integrity guarantee against in-transit tampering), the trust anchor is entirely the pomofocus.online domain itself — if that domain is compromised, rotated to a malicious owner, or the file is swapped server-side before the hash was recorded, users receive arbitrary code execution. There is no GitHub release, no signed artifact, no reproducible build, and no upstream source code reference. This is a genuine supply-chain concern: an executed binary from an unofficial personal host with no independent verification chain, which is the canonical definition of medium severity.

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, …).
