Why flagged The package installs a prebuilt Python wheel from a non-standard host (cryptalabs.com) which is not a common PyPI or code repository; while the wheel has a matching b2sum, the source is an executable artifact that could be swapped if the host were compromised, posing a supply-chain risk.

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, …).
