View on AUR

Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb binary from a non-whitelisted host (proton.me), which is not a standard source for AUR packages; while proton.me is the official project domain, the lack of verifiable build process and use of a binary blob creates a supply-chain risk if the host were compromised.

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, …).
