LOW

Why flagged The package downloads source code from SourceForge and a trusted mirror (ftp.fau.de), both hosting the project's own files; the non-whitelisted host is a reputable university FTP site commonly used for distribution, and the downloaded tarball is a standard part of the build process for a native extension, not an executable payload.

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 90%): The package downloads source code from SourceForge and a trusted mirror (ftp.fau.de), both hosting the project's own files; the non-whitelisted host is a reputable university FTP site commonly used for distribution, and the downloaded tarball is a standard part of the build process for a native extension, not an executable payload.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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