LOW

Why flagged The package downloads project-related data files (ELF, PAK, 7z, zip) from non-whitelisted hosts like archive.org and bitbucket, but these are used as static assets, not executed at build/install time; the worst case of a swap is limited to tampered data, not code execution.

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 project-related data files (ELF, PAK, 7z, zip) from non-whitelisted hosts like archive.org and bitbucket, but these are used as static assets, not executed at build/install time; the worst case of a swap is limited to tampered data, not code execution.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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