Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt Windows executable (QuestradeIQEdge.exe) from the vendor's official media domain, which is plausibly legitimate; while the host is not on a standard whitelist, it belongs to the vendor and the file is not obfuscated or executed at build time, limiting worst-case risk to supply-chain compromise of an official binary, not active code injection.

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 a prebuilt Windows executable (QuestradeIQEdge.exe) from the vendor's official media domain, which is plausibly legitimate; while the host is not on a standard whitelist, it belongs to the vendor and the file is not obfuscated or executed at build time, limiting worst-case risk to supply-chain compromise of an official binary, not active code injection.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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