Why flagged Downloads a prebuilt proprietary AppImage binary from dl.todesktop.com (a third-party app distribution platform, not the project's own official release infrastructure), which could be silently swapped; however a checksum is provided and todesktop.com is a legitimate app delivery service used by many Electron apps, so risk is moderate rather than high.

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, …).
